Pirates 3, Reds 0

The Pirates scored three off Eric Milton in the first.

Milton was pulled after 4 1/3 innings. A very early hook. Kirk Saarloos came in. I had someone with the Reds tell that another move was coming after the Chris Denorfia trade. But I doubt that Milton's involved.

What we could be seeing is reshaping of the bullpen: Saarloos going to a long role, so the others -- Todd Coffey, for example -- don't have to be used as often.

Milton is looking at a 0-4 record, despite a relatively decent ERA (4.71).

Ken Griffey Jr., who the Reds announced has diagnosed with pleurisy (inflammation of the lining of the pleural cavity surrounding the lungs), pinch hit in the seventh for Saarloos. He walked. Kyle Lohse pinch-ran for him.
