The Pittsburgh Pirates will try to get back at the New York Mets after losing to the visitors 5-2 on Saturday at PNC Park. After splitting the first two games with the Mets, the Pirates will bank on their most reliable relief pitcher in Luis Ortiz to lead them to victory. Ortiz parades a 3.27 ERA with 47 strikeouts in 55 innings this season. The Pirates boast a respectable 3.93 ERA this season with 42 quality starts. Meanwhile, the Mets hope they can build some momentum following their recent win over the Pirates. New York had a terrific June, posting a 6-8 record while batting .280 with 158 runs. The Mets are 3-3 so far this July. New York has batted .217 with 28 runs and allowed a 5.26 ERA through the first six games of the month.

Pitchers Matchup: Mets lefty Sean Manaea (5-3, 3.67 ERA with 81 strikeouts) will go up against Pirates RHP Luis Ortiz (4-2, 3.27 ERA with 47 strikeouts).
