The improving Pirates return home from their West Coast road trip to open a nine-game homestand tonight with an interleague series, having split six games in Arizona and San Diego. Greg Brown previews tonight’s game.
The Pirates yesterday claimed utility man Ronny Simon off waivers from the Marlins and optioned him to Indianapolis. He’s hit .234 in 47 at-bats for Miami this season with no home runs and two doubles, driving in seven runs.
To open a spot on the 40-man roster, the Bucs designated relief pitcher Tanner Rainey for assignment.
