Pittsburgh at Milwaukee

Pittsburgh's 30-year-old Ivan Nova looks to be wearing down in the August heat, allowing 33 hits, 21 runs his last four starts (22 innings). Nova was rocked for six runs on 10 hits with two walks over 6.1 innings in Wednesday's loss to the Tigers. He has a 6.67 ERA in five starts since the All-Star break, with 43 hits allowed in 28+ innings. He is also 3-7 on the road for the season with a 4.73 ERA and faces a Milwaukee lineup that is #12 in runs scored, #10 in slugging. Milwaukee piled up 13 runs in wins on Saturday and Sunday over the Cincinnati Reds. The Brewers are 13-4 at home against a team with a losing record and the Pirates are on a 24-65 run in this park.
