Pirates look for 4-0 start

CINCINNATI (Ticker) -- The Pittsburgh Pirates seek to remain perfect when they visit the Cincinnati Reds on Friday.

After losing their first six games of the 2006 season, the Pirates are off to a 3-0 start this time after sweeping a series in Houston.

Paul Maholm will look to continue the Pirates' streak. In his first full season in the majors in 2006, Maholm went 8-10 with a 4.76 ERA.

The lefthander is 2-1 with a 4.46 ERA against the Reds.

Former reliever Matt Belisle takes the mound for Cincinnati. The righthander is 2-2 with a 4.01 ERA in seven lifetime starts.

The Reds won two of three games from the Chicago Cubs in their season-opening series, including a 5-2 victory on Thursday.
