Paul Skenes isn\'t exactly sure what the Pittsburgh Pirates\' record is, only that it\'s not good.
Pittsburgh\'s young ace and reigning National League Rookie of the Year understands the frustrations that resulted in boos and chants of \"Sell the team\" directed at increasingly popular targets manager Derek Shelton and owner Bob Nutting during a 9-4 loss to the New York Yankees on Friday.
Skenes believes the angst should be directed elsewhere.
\"Mr. Nutting and Shelty aren\'t the ones playing,\" Skenes said on Saturday. \"We\'re the ones playing. If we were 8-0 through however many games we\'ve played right now, the fans aren\'t booing. We\'ve got to play better.\"
