Pittsburgh Pirates defeat the Brewers again as starting pitching continues to be efficient

It's Wednesday and happy hump day!

On today's episode, host Ethan Smith discusses the Pittsburgh Pirates victory over the Brewers on Tuesday evening, their second straight win over the Brew Crew. Bailey Falter had quite the evening, continuing a string of dominance from starting pitching that many of us didn't expect. The starting pitching highlights the top of the show and Ethan discusses why he thinks it can continue to be efficient. 

Also, Andrew McCutchen homered to begin the game for the second straight game. His splits suggest its a good idea for him to leadoff, so could we expect more of it moving forward from Cutch?

Finally, Ethan takes a look at the third game of the series today as the Pirates aim for a series win over Milwaukee on today's episode of Locked On Pirates.
