Here it is. The Pirates will start the season April 5 at home against the Phillies. Their first road series will kick off April 10 against the Dodgers, and will be followed by series against the Giants and Diamondbacks. They'll have a road series against the Tigers in late May, and will host the Royals, Tigers and Twins in interleague play. They have nine of their games against the Brewers in the last six weeks of the season, which gives them some prayer of playing competitive baseball until then. It looks, though, like June could be tough - every game is either on the road or an interleague game, or both.
