Pitchers: RHP Joe Musgrove (0-1, 4.76) closes it out against RHP Brandon Woodruff (0-1, 3.60). The longball bit Joe against the Redbirds, and also has against the Brew Crew - he's given up eight long flies in 23-2/3 IP v Beertown and as a result has a 6.46 ERA against them. Woodruff became an All-Star starter last year at the age of 26 and won 2-of-4 starts with two no decisions against the Bucs in '19, but with a less than stellar 4.58 ERA. 

Notes:

• Six games, six lineups. Four guys - Adam Frazier, Bryan Reynolds, Colin Moran & J-Bell - have started every game and so far, Guillermo Heredia has also appeared at some time in all five contests. All except Captain Redbeard (.353) are hitting at or below the Mendoza Line.
• Geoff Hartlieb won his first MLB game last night while Nick Burdi earned his first big league save.
• The Bucs are off tomorrow, then it's off to Wrigley for a three gamer v the Cubs.
