The Pirates and Reds were rained out on Tuesday, with no make-up date yet announced. The two clubs will conclude their abbreviated two game series on Wednesday evening.
Juan Nicasio will get the nod for the Bucs, and Alfredo Simon will take the hill for the Reds. Prior to the rainout yesterday, Manager Clint Hurdle showed a new lineup which featured David Freese in the leadoff spot and playing first base. It would have been only the second time in his career that he has started a game at first base.
