The Pirates continue their west-coast road trip tonight as they head to San Diego to take on the Padres.
Mitch Kellar is scheduled to start for the Pirates tonight. He is 1-6 on the season with a 3.66 ERA. The Padres will send Nick Pivetta, who is 5-2 with a 2.72 ERA. The Pirates have won six out of their last ten games, and are on a two-game winning streak from their series against Arizona, while the Padres have only won four of their last ten. Their last game was a 10-8 loss to the Miami Marlins. Airtime is 9:15 with the pre-game show on WCCS with first pitch set for 9:40.
Down in the minors, Jack Suwinski had a two-run homer to help Indianapolis beat Nashville 7-1. That homer, his sixth on the year, was part of a 2-3 night at the plate for the right fielder. Pitcher Carmen Mlodzisnki (ma-JIN-skee) started and pitched 4 and two-thirds scoreless innings with five strikeouts, four walks and three hits.
