The Pirates won easily 7-1 to even the series.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are going to throw Francisco Liriano who is coming off of a win in the Wild Card Game against Cincinnati. Liriano has been pretty much unbeatable at home going 8-1, 1.47 ERA. The Pirates have a lot of faith in him at home and he will be looking to give the Pirates the lead in the series. On the other end Mike Matheny has a rookie on the mound, Joe Kelly. Kelly, who started 15 games this season, has been better on the road than at home. His road numbers are 5-1, 2.07 ERA.
