Brewers get soaked in Pittsburgh

After a two hour rain delay Monday in Pittsburgh, the Brewers were finally able to get under way with the Pirates. Newly acquired IF Felipe Lopez was a late addition to the starting lineup (thanks to the long delay) and promptly singled in his first plate appearance for the Crew. Then Lopez was promptly picked off first base. Later in the first inning, the Brewers scored the first run --- and that would be the only lead they would have. The Pirates came back with four runs in the bottom of the first on their way to snapping the losing streak against the Brewers. The final score was 8-5. Game two is Tuesday at 6:05PM CDT.
