Taking a quick look at the standings in the NL, one would think there is an error. LA enters this game with a 28-38 record, winning one of every three on the road. Pittsburgh comes in at 40-27, and winning two of every three at home. Somehow, it looks like the oddsmakers don't believe in this Pittsburgh team. Clayton Kershaw has a lot to do with that, but despite a stellar 1.88 ERA on the season he is just 5-4 - a testament to the lackluster Dodgers' offense. They are also just 7-7 in his 14 starts on the season. The Dodgers take the donut on the road at 0-7 vs. a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600 in their last seven. The Pirates are now 20-6 in their last 26 vs. a team with a losing record. Play on Pittsburgh.
