8* Sure-Shot
(MLB) St. Louis vs. Pittsburgh,
Money Line: -139.00 Pittsburgh (Home)
Result: Win
Taking the PIRATES here. Right off the bat I am fading STL off their ESPN game last night. Westbrook has terrible career numbers vs the Pirates (1-7 4.81). STL 1-5 his last 6 starts vs Pitt and 0-5 last 5 here at PNC. Liriano easily the comeback POY in the NL. The guy is 10-4 2.23 ERA. He isn't sexy, but the guy keeps runners off base and the ball in the park (4HR 88 innings). He has a 1.67 ERA in 6 home starts this year. Westbrook is having a nice year, but the stats tell a different story. On the road, 2-4 4.50 ERA in 8 starts with a .315 BA Against. STL 1-8 in Westbrooks last 9 starts on the road vs teams with winning records. 8* Sure Shot PITT PIRATES
