Following a trip to the long standing house of horrors that is Miller Park, the Pittsburgh Pirates have suffered yet another series loss and are now just 10-22 on the season

The Pittsburgh Pirates played the rare wrap around four-game series in Milwaukee this past weekend and leading into Monday evening. Unfortunately, following a 6-5 loss on Monday night, the Pirates suffered yet another series loss.

With the loss, the Pittsburgh Pirates are now just 10-22 on the season. This includes being just 2-8-1 in series played this season. However, they will finish the 2020 season with a 5-5 record against the Brew Crew.

In the series loss there was both some good and bad for the Pirates. But, as you would expect in a series that ended in a series loss, the bad outweighed the good for the Bucs. Now, let’s get into recapping all of that.

As we have been doing throughout the season, it is now time to hand out grades for the series the Pittsburgh Pirates played in Milwaukee. As always, we will grade the performance of the Pirates’ starting pitchers, relievers and offense in the series. Now, let’s dive into it starting with the team’s starting pitchers.
