Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach MLB Rotation #918 Wednesday Free Pick Pittsburgh Pirates Money Line +150 vs Chicago White Sox @ 12:35 ET - Overall the White Sox are the better team of course. That really goes without saying. However, let us take a closer look here as to why there is excellent home dog value in this one. With their 6-3 loss here yesterday, Chicago is now just 16-18 in road games on the year and they have lost 5 straight games overall. Pittsburgh is having a rough season overall but is 16-20 in home games. Also, the White Sox great record on the season has a lot do with dominating against lefty starters as they are 18-6 against southpaws but only a game over .500 against righties. In day games this season Chicago is only 18-16. Also, while Dylan Cease is 1-4 with a 4.55 ERA in 6 career interleague starts, the Pirates are a surprising 8-6 in interleague games this season. Chase De Jong has been respectable this season with holding hitters to a .250 batting average in his 4 starts and averaging about a strikeout per inning. Look for the White Sox slump to continue as the Pirates improve to 9-6 in interleague action on the year. Free Pick PITTSBURGH +150
