Five left-handers vs. Bucs' Karstens
With the news this afternoon that Bob Uecker will undergo heart surgery on Friday, it’s one of those days on which the game seems secondary. But the Brewers and Pirates will play anyway, and Uecker will have his usual seat in the broadcast booth for the second of three games between the teams.
Perhaps you have seen this stat before: The Brewers have won 22 consecutive home games against the Pirates, including Monday’s 17-3 final.
Here are the lineups:
PIRATES

Andy LaRoche 3B
Lastings Milledge LF
Garrett Jones RF
Ryan Doumit C
Jeff Clement 1B
