PITTSBURGH — Paul Skenes pitched seven sparkling innings, and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Colorado Rockies 4-0 on Sunday for their fourth consecutive win.

Jared Triolo hit a three-run homer for Pittsburgh, and Isiah Kiner-Falefa had a run-scoring double. Triolo also went deep during Saturday night’s 5-1 victory over the lowly Rockies.

Skenes (8-9) allowed three hits, struck out seven and walked none. It was a much sharper performance by the right-hander than his previous start against Colorado, when he permitted four runs and five hits in five-plus innings in a no-decision at Coors Field on Aug. 2.
