Astros Vs. Pirates: Time, TV, Radio Info And More

The Houston Astros are taking on the Pittsburgh Pirates in the second game of their three-game series. After a 7-1 victory, the Astros are looking to win back-to-back games for only the second time since early August.

The Pirates are still hanging around in the wild card race and are 5.5 games back with 12 games left, so they need to win as many games as possible if they want to have a chance at that wild card spot. The Astros will be playing the spoiler role against the Pirates.
