Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Russell Martin expects to be in the lineup on Wednesday when they take on the San Francisco Giants in the National League wild-card game. 

Martin was held out of the lineup for the Pirates final two games of the regular season after aggravating his hamstring on Friday. 

The 31-year-old, who's set to become a free agent at the end of the season, hit .290/.402/.430 with 11 home runs and 67 RBI in 111 games.
