Houston is quickly establishing themselves as a candidate for the worst team in the National League at 15-27 at the quarter pole. That screams louder on the road where the Stros have deposited just one win in their last seven into the win column. The offense on the road has really been the culprit, with just 17 runs scored in the seven games, for 2.4 a contest. Kyle Lohse is picking up the slack for the loss of Adam Wainwright and has challenged the injured starters expected resume at 4-2 with a 2.31 ERA. The Astros struggle on the road vs. righthand pitching well documented at 31-68 in their last 99. Norris has picked on cold offensesd leading the Stros to a 9-0 UNDER mark vs. a team that scored two or less in their last game. The Cards are a spotless 7-0-1 to the UNDER in their last eight at home vs. a team with a road weinning percentage of less than .400, where they are also 45-17 playing those same weak less than ,400 road teams at home. St. Louis and UNDER here.
