Game Thread: Braves at Pirates, 3/4/21

Another day, another Pirates spring training game, this time against the Braves at LECOM Park. Start time is 1:05, and the game will be on AT&T SportsNet Pittsburgh and KDKA/Pirates Radio Network.

PLEASE NOTE: Only televised games during spring training will have official game threads. There should be a post every day, so if it’s radio or web-only, feel free to discuss the game there.

Tyler Anderson will get the start for the Bucs, while Bryse Wilson will take the mound for the Braves. In addition to Anderson, Derek Shelton plans to use Kyle Crick, Sam Howard, David Bednar, Chasen Shreve, Clay Holmes, and Blake Weiman on the mound today.
