Backed up by O'Neill Cruz's one-run homer in the top of the first inning, Skins started the game with a hit by leadoff hitter Jonathan India in the bottom of the first inning, but struck out Eli De La Cruz, Tyler Stephenson and Spencer Steyer to end the first inning. He used changeups and sinkers as the deciding balls.

Skins was not swayed in the bottom of the second inning. He caught TJ Friedl with a fly ball to left field and got a hit by Ty Frans, but turned Jake Fraley with a fly ball to left field. He threw a sinker against Santiago Espinal, and struck out.

Skins showed more stable performance from the bottom of the third inning. He struck out Will Benson with a fly ball to center field, India with a straight hit to shortstop, and De La Cruz. In the bottom of the fourth inning, he struck out Sitbenson and Steyer and sent Friedl out on a pitch that hit his body, but he struck out once again against Frans and did not lose a point.

Nick York drew a solo arch in the top of the fifth inning to lighten up Skins' shoulder. Skins grounded out Fraley and Espinal, respectively, at shortstop and a grounder to third base in the bottom of the fifth inning, before striking out Benson.

Skins, who threw 73 pitches through the fifth inning, turned over the baton to Colin Holderman in the bottom of the sixth inning. Pittsburgh's bullpen ended the game without allowing a run. It was Pittsburgh's 2-0 win.

Skins, who joined Pittsburgh as the first overall pick in the first round of the 2023 draft, made his big league debut this season, posting 22 games, 11 wins, 3 losses, 131 innings, 38 strikeouts, 167 strikeouts, and an ERA of 1.99. He is one of the most promising candidates for the Rookie of the Year award in the National League.

He pitched five scoreless innings, reducing his earned run average (ERA) to one point. "He threw eight changeups during five innings, but all seven swings and misses," said MLB.com , the official website of the Major League Baseball. "Cincinnati didn't have a single runner on the second base. It had only two hits and one out."
