Pirates -146 3* MLB POD
Jake Westbrook has not been great on the road and he's struggled big time against the Pirates hitters. Pirates won't need much offense with the way they have been performing on the mound. Francisco Liriano looks dominant with a 1.67 ERA at home and he'll face a Cardinals team that only scored 3 runs in their sweep by the Braves. Cardinals have been a better hitting team scoring over a run more vs. RHP. This is the game the Pirates must have and have a significant advantage.
