Cervelli, Santana exit in 6th with injuries

PITTSBURGH -- The Pirates lost their pitcher and catcher to injuries before recording an out in the sixth inning against the Brewers on Friday night at PNC Park. The nature and cause of each injury was unclear.

Catcher Francisco Cervelli exited after Jesus Aguilar hit an RBI double. Cervelli received the relay throw from Adam Frazier too late to record an out at the plate, turned and fired a sidearm throw to third base that sailed wide of Colin Moran. He left the game shortly afterward with head athletic trainer Bryan Housand.
