FUELED BY FRAZIER: Adam Frazier hit his first career walkoff home run on Wednesday...He has produced 15 hits and 17 RBI in his last 28 at bats with runners in scoring position and is hitting.341 (29-for-85) overall this season with RISP...His.471 (16-for-34) average with RISP since the All-Star break is the highest such average among all Major League players.

THE FINAL STAND: The Pirates are 1-2 on their final homestand of the season following their three-game series with the Brewers...The eight-game homestand continues with this three-game set against St. Louis over the weekend and concludes with two games against Baltimore on Tuesday and Wednesday (day off Monday).

SEVEN STARTERS: The Pirates have used just seven starting pitchers this season, one of only three teams in MLB to do so (also Cleveland and San Francisco)...The Bucs used a total of 14 different starting pitchers last season...the club record for fewest starting pitchers used in one season is seven (done in 1902, 1972 and 1997).

SHORT HOPS: Jordy Mercer has established a single-season career high with 14 home runs and is five RBI shy of his career-high of 59 set last year...the last Pittsburgh shortstop to hit 14 or more home runs in one season was Jay Bell, who smacked 16 in 1991...The club record for a shortstop is 19, hit by Arky Vaughan in 1935...Mercer s 46 career home runs as a shortstop give him the fifth-most in team history at that position (Glenn Wright is fourth with 50). FIRING BLANKS: Only the Indians (19) and Dodgers (15) have produced more shutouts than the Pirates this season (St. Louis and Milwaukee also have 12)...The Bucs had a total of five shutouts last year after recording 13 in 2015.
