The Pittsburgh Pirates (48-64) take on the Milwaukee Brewers (58-56) for three games at PNC Park, with game two tonight at 7:05 PM. The Pirates will send out Steven Brault, who last pitched in the majors on July 5th, giving up one run over four innings to the Brewers. He suffered a left shoulder strain in that outing. His previous start, which was one run over 4.2 innings, was also against the Brewers. Brault made a rehab start with Indianapolis five days ago in which he allowed two runs over four innings. The Brewers are countering with veteran right-hander Chase Anderson, who has a 3.73 ERA in 94 innings, with 90 strikeouts and a 1.20 WHIP. He faced the Pirates back on July 7th and allowed two runs over four innings. He also faced them in late May (two runs over five innings) and early June (two runs over six innings), so you can expect him to allow two runs tonight.
Pirates add Brault/Rodriguez. Option Agrazal/Ramirez
