St. Louis is getting closer to a playoff position with five wins in seven games, including a 3-2 win over the Rockies on Monday when Brendan Donovan hit a go-ahead two-run double in the eighth. It was the eighth consecutive loss for hapless Colorado, which is 14-46 on the road and trying to avoid finishing with the worst record in modern history. The Rockies are 0-7 in Kyle Freeland's past seven starts in the second game of a series, and the Cardinals have won four of Matthew Liberatore's five starts in game two of a series. The Rockies have lost 16 of 20 on the road against St. Louis, and they have gone UNDER 12 of 18 versus the NL Central. The Cardinals are 5-2 UNDER in their past seven games, and Colorado has been held to two runs or fewer in four of seven games. St. Louis is 35-25 at home. Take the Cardinals and the UNDER.
