Pittsburgh at Atlanta

The Pirates hung tough through 30 games at 14-16 but water seeks its level and since then the pirates have been a more Pirate-like 6-13, and fading fast. This is a team that has long struggled, especially on the road. Put them on the road vs a righthand pitcher and the losses become evident as they are a woeful 17-51 in their last 68. Trying to win on the road vs a winning team has truly been an adventure as the Pirates have gone just 11-44 in their last 55. The Braves are taking ownership on the NL Central winning 11 of their last 12. The Braves aren't coughing up many slam dunks either as they are 105-43 in their last 148 as a favorite of -201 or more. Atlanta in this one.
