Bucs bats mostly silent in 6-1 loss to Brewers

The Pittsburgh Pirates fell back to .500 with a loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday night, as the Bucs went silent at the plate in a 6-1 defeat.

The only Pittsburgh run came off of a solo homer in the fourth from Diego Castillo, which was his first regular season home run of his career.

That homer actually tied up the game for the Bucs, but starting pitcher Zach Thompson would quickly give it away in the bottom of the inning, giving up five runs in the frame.
