Jose Tabata went 2-for-3, drove home three runs and also stole a base, leading the Pirates to an 8-2 victory over the Brewers on Friday. Tabata's bases clearing double capped off a six-run third inning and provided all of the support that Kevin Correia would need in the game. His pair of doubles in the game give him nine on the season, and his bat finally appears to be showing signs of life. As long as he's leading off, he's worthy of starting in most leagues.
