The Pittsburgh Pirates faced the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks' ace in the series opener on Friday.
Now the tables are turned as the Diamondbacks face the Pirates' ace, right-hander Mitch Keller, in the middle game of the set on Saturday. Pittsburgh hopes it goes better for Keller.
Of the three wins the Pirates had notched in the past 15 games entering this series, Keller nearly single-handedly accounted for two. Keller has already matched his win total from last season. He has not given up a home run over his past five starts. He is 3-0 with a 2.00 ERA in four home outings.
