Cardinals visit Pirates in division matchup
In betting circles, handicappers will tell you home dogs pack a mean bite. The Pirates will be looking to sink their teeth into the favored Cardinals and Chris Carpenter on Wednesday as moneyline underdogs.
The Cardinals start Chris Carpenter, 1-1, 2.37 ERA. His last trip was a loss, a 1-0 team loss against the Reds, when he threw 8 innings, allowing 1 run on 4 hits.
St. Louis takes its 8-6 mark to Pittsburgh to battle the 5-11 Pirates today.
The Pirates get an advantage as a home pup in this one. Pittsburgh is 5-11, while the road favorites, who are 8-6 for the year, need to lay 205 in order to take the cash. The total opened at 8.5.
Jim Tracy's team was busy last game winning against St. Louis 12-4 as underdogs. The 16 runs sent that game over the total of 10.
Pittsburgh pitchers are charitable with the baserunners, giving up more hits per game than just about every team in the league. The Cardinals hitters could see good pitches to hit today.
