San Francisco at St. Louis

Fourth straight road game for San Francisco, cooling off on offense yesterday in a 2-0 loss. They struck out 13 times, equaling their second-most in 2014. At least they have Tim Hudson going here, who has found the fountain of youth with a sizzling 5-2 record and a 1.92 ERA after going seven innings in a 4-0 win over the Cubs on Tuesday. San Francisco is on a 13-6-2 run UNDER the total, and the UNDER is 35-13-3 in the Giants last 51 road games against a team with a winning home record. They face a St. Louis team that isn't hitting, 20th in runs scored, 24th in slugging, but staying in the hunt with a dynamite pitching staff. Starter Lance Lynn has a 1.64 ERA in his last three starts and is coming off his first career shutout. The right-hander allowed five hits and walked three New York Yankees in a 6-0 home win Tuesday. The UNDER is 15-7 when the Cardinals face the National League West, so look for a low scoring, defensive battle. Play the Giants/Cardinals UNDER the Total.
