Cleveland Guardians—rather than just the first 20,000—would receive a highly coveted Paul Skenes bobblehead, an audible called after droves and droves of spectators descended upon PNC Park. But unfortunately it wasn't the kind of W that matters—the Pirates were shut out 3–0 in the second game of their three-game series vs.

The team pledged to make sure that every one of the 37,113 who waited in lines that stretched for blocks in every direction — including across the Roberto Clemente Bridge — would be able to obtain one of the popular collectibles.

In addition to receiving the giveaway, Pirates fans at PNC Park on Saturday got to see Skenes make his 28th career MLB start on Saturday. He registered four strikeouts while allowing six hits, two runs and a walk in 7.0 innings of work during a 3-0 loss to Cleveland.
