St. Louis at Pittsburgh

This certainly isn't the start the Pittsburgh Pirates envisioned, but they have a chance to get back to respectability today vs. the Cardinals. They got off to a good start last night with a 6-4 win in the series opener. Pittsburgh's 10-18 start is becoming a distant memory as they have won five of their last seven, and have taken out St. Louis in Pittsburgh winning 10 of the last 13 regular season meetings. Lance Lynn has seen the Pirates often, but has yet to solve them with a career ERA of 5.03 against them. The Cardinals are just 3-8 behind Lynn on the road after allowing five runs or more in their previous game, and the Pirates wear the dog role well at 8-3 in their last 11 from +110 to +150. Take Pittsburgh.
