Pittsburgh had a 3-0 lead on Friday night but the Padres tied it with three in the sixth and then went ahead in the eighth for a 4-3 victory. The Pirates will have JT Burbaker on the mound tonight and he comes off a good outing on Monday when he allowed no earned runs on five hits in 6 2/3 innings against Colorado. Brubaker has faced San Diego once this season and gave up three runs on five hits in five innings. Joe Musgrove goes for the Padres and Pittsburgh hitters are batting .270 against him in 39 at-bats. The Padres have lost four of five home games versus right-handed starters and they have not been hitting with power lately as they had 18 singles in a row before Luke Voit finally hit a three-run homer in last night's game. Brubaker has pitched better than his record indicates recently with a 3.22 ERA his last four starts. Take the Pirates on the run line.
