The Pittsburgh Pirates offense is in a deep funk right now. They have won four of their last six games, but the last two have both come in the last two games and they have not scored a single run in either of them. The Pirates are an improved team this season, mainly because they have a little more pitching to keep them in games with that pitching having been superb recently. The Pirate staff has allowed just 10 runs over their last six games, at 1.7 a contest. The Braves are 21-6-2 vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30 in their last 29. The runs have been hard to come by in this series and over the last 27 meetings in Pittsburgh the UNDER has prevailed to a 20-6-1 mark. I like UNDER here.
