Pittsburgh Pirates/St. Louis Cardinals 8:15 PM EST
No team has gotten more mileage out of their pitching staff than the St. Louis Cardinals over the last month. They shutout Pittsburgh last night 2-0, and it was their 7th shutout since June 7th, just a month of games. The Cards have also held nine other opponents to 2 runs or fewer. Pittsburgh is certainly capable of matching them on the mound, as the Pirates have allowed 2 runs or less in 9 of their last 11 games. St. Louis has played to an 8-1-2 mark to the UNDER in their last 11 home games vs. a right-handed pitcher, and are 13-3 to the UNDER in their last 16 games vs. a winning team. The Pirates have seen just 6 of their last 21 road games vs a winning team make it OVER the total. Both teams have shown mediocre offenses with stellar pitching, which is a recipe for a low-scoring game.
Pitching: Listed
PIT: Vance Worley (2-1, 2.28)
STL: Carlos Martinez (2-3, 3.91)
Play: UNDER 8 (-115)
