After some initial concern about whether the Pirates would need to place Starling Marte on the disabled list, it was a welcomed sight for the team to see him in the lineup Saturday night.

Marte had a sore left side, but it turns out just a little bit of rest did the trick.

"I feel better. Nobody plays 100 percent," Marte told Pirates.com. "But I'm ready. I'm still feeling this, but it's enough for me to start the game. I want to be there to help the team."
