Pittsburgh at Chicago

Premium Pick

A Wrigley Field game with a high total! Surprising in that Pittsburgh is in town, a team with a bad offense, No. 26 in baseball in runs, batting average, on-base percentage and slugging despite the fact that they play in a small park at home. The Cubs have never faced Pittsburgh starter Brian Burres before, with no book on him. The UNDER is 4-1-2 in Burres' last seven starts overall. And the light-hitting Pirates have to face hard-throwing Ryan Dempster, who has 158 strikeouts in 164 innings. The UNDER is 9-0 in Dempster's last nine home starts, and the team is 20-7-2 UNDER the total in the Cubs last 29 home games overall. The last five meetings between these teams at Wrigley Field, the UNDER is 4-1. Only one way to go here, so play the UNDER.
