The Bucs have lost seven of their last 10 games as they head into the weekend series against division leading Milwaukee. Though they Bucs had won two straight, they almost need a sweep or at least 2 of three from the Brewers to assure they stay in the race. Plus, St Louis is still ahead of them also. Vance Worley will go to the hill for the Bucs. Worley has a nice 5-3 record, 2.92 ERA and 1.19 WHIp this season. However, Worley has been hit hard his last two outings, both losses. The 26-year old righthander has allowed eight earned runs over his last 11 1/3 innings including four home runs. The four round-trippers are more than he's allowed in his previous eight starts. Mike Fiers will start for the Brewers. Fiers has just seven appearances and three starts this season for a fine 1.29 ERA and 3-1 record. Opponents are hitting just .149 against him in 28 innings and he's struck out 30 and walked just six. Since Fiers rejoined the rotation in August, he's 3-0 and allowed just two earned runs over 21 innings. The Pirates have not fared well in Milwaukee, going 13-51 in their last 64 trips to Wisconsin. Too much of a pitching and matchup edge here on Sunday with the Brewers.
Don't say that...Think Positive....Line is going towards Bucs and it did last 2 games too...... hard to sweep a team on road........
