[1/20] Sep 14, 2023; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA; Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Mitch Keller (23) delivers a pitch against the Washington Nationals during the first inning at PNC Park.
It was a matchup of first-time All-Stars on the mound, and Keller and Gray pitched accordingly.
Keller got the better of Gray, thanks to the two home runs, but the Nationals gave Keller a little test in the first.
Keller retired 13 batters in a row before Meneses walked with one out in the seventh -- the only walk allowed by Keller.
Gray struck out Peguero before being lifted for Jordan Weems, who got a strikeout and a groundout.
