Saturday afternoon’s matchup against the Milwaukee Brewers started on a high note for the Pirates. They were able to plate four runs in the first two innings, three of which came in the first inning. A slow Brewer uprising was to take place, however, ultimately culminating in an explosion of runs in the middle innings.
Chad Kuhl took to the bump for the Pirates in his third start since returning from the injured list. As mentioned, he was spotted three runs before heading out to the mound at American Life Field.
To kick things off, Adam Frazier singled.
