Play: Pittsburgh Pirates
Rating: 8*

The Miami Marlins are going for a three-game sweep of the host Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. Pittsburgh has a big advantage on the mound in this contest though, and this looks like a good spot to back the Pirates.

Jose Urena (1-4, 6.80 ERA) takes the ball for Miami. He's yielded a total of nine runs and 13 hits in two previous meetings with the Pirates covering 5 2/3 innings. He's struggled with consistency this season as he's been bouncing in and out of the rotation because of injuries.

The Pirates turn to Ryan Vogelsong (2-2, 3.20) who missed more than two months this season after facial injuries from being hit by a pitch May 24. He's 1-1 with a 2.55 ERA in three starts since reinstated from the disabled list, and he surrendered just a total of five runs in 13 innings against the Fish last season.

Marlins are 1-8 in Urenas last nine starts.
