Pirates begin 3-game series with the White Sox
The Pittsburgh Pirates open a three-game series at home against the Chicago White Sox on FridayAPRIL 7, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Strikes out six in season debut Giolito allowed three runs (two earned) on five hits and a walk Saturday against the Astros, striking out six. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Giolito gave up two runs on four singles in the first frame but settled down after that, allowing just one unearned run one one hit and a walk in his final four innings. It wasn't enough to bring home a win, but it was a passable performance against the defending champions. His next start lines up for Friday in Pittsburgh.

Velo steady, still getting Ks Giolito was sitting between 91 and 94 mph with his fastball in his Cactus League start Tuesday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Impact For much of Giolito's career, he's averaged around 94 mph with his fastball. That number dipped to 92.7 during a subpar 2022 campaign, so it's slightly concerning that he's struggled to ramp his velocity back up. On the other hand, he's racked up 15 strikeouts across only 9.1 frames while maintaining a respectable 3.86 ERA in Cactus League games this spring. Overall, Goilito will be hoping to bounce back from last season's 4.90 ERA and 1.44 WHIP, which he posted across 161.2 frames.

Punches out six Giolito allowed one unearned run on three hits and two walks while striking out six across three innings in Cactus League action against the Cubs on Friday.
Impact Giolito took the mound for the second time this spring, and he now has nine strikeouts across five innings of work. He's looking for a bounceback season after posting a disappointing 4.90 ERA in 2022. Per Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times, Giolito lost weight this season after intentionally bulking up ahead of the 2022 campaign. In addition, Van Schouwen noted that Giolito is a proponent of the newly implemented pitch clock, because he feels it helps him maintain a rhythm on the mound.
