Pirates' Lake Bachar: Opening Sunday's game
Bachar will serve as the Pirates' opening pitcher for Sunday's series finale against the Dodgers, Jason Mackey of MLB.com reports.
Bachar tossed one inning and 32 pitches in his most recent appearance in Friday's 5-4 extra-inning loss to Los Angeles, so he'll probably be capped at around two or three frames while he opens the series finale. Carmen Mlodzinski is expected to work in bulk relief behind Bachar.

The Pirates are on the road looking to grab a win today.
The Pittsburgh Pirates are facing off against the defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers in the finale of a three-game weekend set at Dodger Stadium. The Pirates have held the lead in each of the first two games, but they have been unable to keep it, dropping both of the earlier games in the series by one run.
Now, the Pirates hope to avoid a sweep by sending Lake Bachar to the mound to start what should be a bullpen game for Pittsburgh.
Bachar has made five appearances for the Pirates since being acquired earlier this month in a trade with the Miami Marlins. He appeared in Friday’s contest against the Dodgers, going through one inning but walking three batters in the process. It’s a second start for the Pirates after pitching the first three innings in the team’s 8-3 win against the Boston Red Sox on August 16.
