It’s fun. I think everybody is playing together, everybody is playing hard, everybody is trying to do their part. It’s not one, two, three guys. It’s everyone contributing and that’s how we have to win ballgames.
As for the Pirates, they have now lost six games in a row and have scored only seven times during this span. The four-game series wraps up on Sunday as the Brewers send RHP Freddy Peralta (7-2, 2.17 ERA) to the bump against the Pirates LHP Tyler Anderson (3-8, 4.75 ERA).
