Jared Jones steady on mound in Friday's loss to Orioles
by Chris Schommer | Pirates Correspondent | Sat, Apr 6th 10:26am EDT
In a steady performance on the mound, Jared Jones notched seven strikeouts over six innings against the Orioles on Friday, yet couldn't escape with the win, as the Pirates fell 5-2.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite allowing just six hits and zero walks, Jones was tagged with two earned runs, saddling him with his first loss of the season. The 22-year-old has shown the ability to miss bats to this point, registering at least seven strikeouts in both of his starts on the mound for the Pirates. The right-hander will look to harness his overpowering repertoire while hoping for more consistent run support from an inconsistent Pittsburgh lineup as the season continues.
