Pittsburgh Pirates visit the Baltimore Orioles. The game will be FREE LIVE STREAMING MLB From Camden Yards Tuesday at 7:05 PM ET

One reason the Pirates ended over two decades of frustration a year ago was their major league-best 15-5 interleague mark. That included a nine-game road win streak to close the season against AL opponents that Pittsburgh will try to extend Tuesday night in the opener of a two-game series with the Orioles.

Pittsburgh (10-16) has yet to play outside the NL Central as it opens a five-game interleague stretch. The Pirates haven't fared well, losing eight of 10 following Sunday's 7-0 loss at St. Louis.

"I don't know if I've ever been involved in something like this before," manager Clint Hurdle told the Pirates' official website. "We don't make up the schedule, just play it."

Pittsburgh dominated AL teams in 2013 en route to its first playoff appearance in 21 years thanks to its pitching. The Pirates' 2.23 interleague ERA ranked second in the majors and their .199 opponents' batting average ranked first.

The Pirates have been let down this year by a starting staff that owns baseball's worst record at 3-13, including 1-8 with a 4.68 ERA in the last 14 games.

Baltimore (12-12), meanwhile, has seen its fortune at the plate at home reversed this season. The Orioles averaged 4.7 runs at home a year ago for baseball's fourth-best mark but are at a major league-worst 2.6 this year, totaling six runs in losing two of three to Kansas City over the weekend.

Baltimore starter Chris Tillman (3-1, 3.38) has never faced Pittsburgh. Tillman has a 0.69 ERA at home compared to 5.21 on the road.

The right-hander seeks a third straight victory after being fortunate to beat Toronto on Wednesday, giving up seven runs over 5 2/3 innings in a 10-8 road win.

The Orioles have won seven of 12 interleague meetings from the Pirates, going 5-1 at home.
