Milwaukee will turn to right-hander Freddy Peralta to get back on track in the rubber game as the Brewers wrap up a three-game series at home against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday afternoon.
The Pirates, who overcame an early four-run deficit to rally for an 8-5 victory in 10 innings on Tuesday night, are expected to call up left-hander Steven Brault from Triple-A Indianapolis to make his first big-league start of the season.
Pittsburgh, which had lost 10 of its last 11 against Milwaukee, was held hitless for 6 1/3 innings by starter Adrian Houser on Tuesday night before erasing a 4-0 deficit with five runs in the seventh off the Brewers bullpen, which has four relievers including All-Star closer Josh Hader on the COVID-19 injured list.
