The Pittsburgh Pirates (27-27) are home to take on the Milwaukee Brewers (31-25) for four games. The Pirates are sending out Joe Musgrove in the opener. He gave up six runs over five innings against the Los Angeles Dodgers five days ago. His previous start was three runs over 6.1 innings versus the San Diego Padres. The Brewers will counter with veteran right-hander Chase Anderson, who has a 3.25 ERA in 27.2 innings, with 29 strikeouts and a 1.34 WHIP. After missing three weeks due to injury, he returned on May 18th and threw four innings with one unearned run against the Atlanta Braves. That was followed by three runs over four innings in his start against the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday.

Here are the lineups:

John started working at Pirates Prospects in 2009, but his connection to the Pittsburgh Pirates started exactly 100 years earlier when Dots Miller debuted for the 1909 World Series champions. John was born in Kearny, NJ, two blocks from the house where Dots Miller grew up. From that hometown hero connection came a love of Pirates history, as well as the sport of baseball. When he didn't make it as a lefty pitcher with an 80+ MPH fastball and a slider that needed work, John turned to covering the game, eventually focusing in on the prospects side, where his interest was pushed by the big league team being below .500 for so long. John has covered the minors in some form since the 2002 season, and leads the draft and international coverage on Pirates Prospects. He writes daily on Pittsburgh Baseball History, when he's not covering the entire system daily throughout the entire year on Pirates Prospects.
