Tonight’s lineups for the first game of this three-game series in Pittsburgh between the Pirates and Braves have been released. Let’s get right into the lineups, shall we?

On the other side of the field, here’s how the Buccos are looking:
Ke’Bryan Hayes is getting the start at third base for the Pirates after starting yesterday’s game on the bench.
