Despite a strong start by southpaw Dillon Peters, the Pirates were unable to take the series from the Milwaukee Brewers as they dropped Sunday’s series finale, 2-1.
Milwaukee got on the board in the first on an infield single by Eduardo Escobar, however it was a throwing error by Rodolfo Castro that allowed Willy Adames to cross home plate.
Christian Yelich doubled home Adames in the third to put the Brewers up by two.
Kevin Newman got the offense going in the bottom of the third with (another) double, his fifth in two days.
