Steele (5-5) earned the win Tuesday against the Pirates, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out six.
Both runs scored in the opening frame, as Pittsburgh sent seven batters to the plate while Steele labored through 19 pitches. However, the 29-year-old cruised through the next four innings, not allowing a runner to reach second. With this 93-pitch performance, the Chicago southpaw collected his fifth win in his last 10 starts. Over that span, he has pitched to a 2.97 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 61:18 K:BB across 57.2 innings. Steele is currently slated to face the Pirates again in his upcoming turn in the rotation next week.
