Live Discussion: Pirates Look to Win the Series Against the Houston Astros

The Pittsburgh Pirates (7-4) take on the Houston Astros (5-7) in games three of a three-game series at PNC Park on Wednesday afternoon. First pitch is at 12:35 PM

The Pirates are sending out veteran Rich Hill (0-1, 10.00) for his third start of the season. He will be going up against right-handed pitcher Jose Urquidy (0-0, 3.86), who is also making his third start of the season.

Ji-hwan Bae will be making his first big league start at shortstop. He hasn’t played the position a lot recently, switching away from it completely in 2021, before playing 24 games there at Indianapolis last year.
