Brewers (5-5) @ Pirates (5-6) Game Thread

The Brewers look to secure a series win with back-to-back victories against the Pirates.

The Brewers offense drove them to the series opening win last night, highlighted by a 2 HR performance by Ryan Braun. Today they look to take game two and thereby secure a series win. Toeing the rubber for the good guys is Taylor Jungmann who got lit up against the Cardinals in his last start. He'll look to rebound tonight against a very good offense. For the bad guys goes offseason acquisition, left-hander Jon Niese. He's off to a similarly bad start to his season. So this game could be another offensive onslaught.
