PNC Park has the 7th-most fair ground among all major league stadiums — generally bad for long-balls.. Extreme flyball batters like Luis Garcia Jr. are generally less successful against extreme flyball pitchers like Braxton Ashcraft.. Playing on the road generally reduces batter stats in all categories due to the lack of home field advantage, which ought to be the case for Luis Garcia Jr. in today's game.

Bryan Reynolds's BABIP skill is projected in the 97th percentile by the leading projection system (THE BAT X).. Bryan Reynolds is penciled in 3rd on the lineup card in this game.. A correlation exists between high heat and more offense (and fewer strikeouts), and this game is expected to have the 2nd-hottest weather of all games on the slate at 82°.. Home field advantage typically boosts hitter stats in all categories, and Bryan Reynolds will hold that advantage today.. This season, Bryan Reynolds has experienced a significant improvement in his exit velocity on flyballs, now sitting at an average of 97.3 mph compared to last year's 94.1 mph mark.

The Pittsburgh Pirates have 5 bats in their projected batting order today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Billy Cook, Oneil Cruz, Joey Bart, Brandon Lowe, Konnor Griffin).. Contrary to popular belief, fastballs are typically a pitcher's least effective pitch. Foster Griffin must realize this, because he has gone to his off-speed and breaking pitches a lot since the start of last season: 75.5% of the time, placing in the 98th percentile.

Hitting from the opposite that Braxton Ashcraft throws from, James Wood will have an advantage in today's game.
