The Pittsburgh Pirates coming off exciting back-to-back walk-off wins are looking to keep it going in another interleague game. The Detroit Tigers come to town for a quick two game series. Mitch Keller gets his 3rd start of the season, looking to bounce back to his All-Start form. He will go up against Reese Olson of Detroit who pitched well in his only start of the season versus the New York Mets.
Derek Shelton will go with his typical starting lineup today, with two differences. First, Joey Bart will next his second start for the Pirates behind the plate. Secondly, Michael A. Taylor is again absent from the lineup, moving Jack Suwinski to CF and putting Connor Joe in RF. Key to the game will be getting Suwinski and Andrew McCutchen going, with them hitting fourth and fifth respectively production is a must.
