Kirby takes the hill for the visitors in Wednesday's matinee. The young right-hander is coming off an impressive performance vs. New York, holding the Yankees to three hits and no runs with seven strikeouts in eight innings. It was a significant showing, as he gave up nine hits and seven runs in his previous start vs. Pittsburgh. The second-year pro sports a 58:6 K:BB ratio in 2023.
