Los Angeles at Pittsburgh

After playing three straight at Coors Field the L.A. Dodgers are on the road again, heading East. The Dodgers are on a 16-23 run against righty starters, plus 2-5 when starter Ross Stripling takes the mound on the road. Pittsburgh is rested and delighted to be home after a rough four-game trip to St. Louis. The Pirates have a winning home record and are 7-3 when following an off day. The Pittsburgh offense is ninth in baseball in runs scored, #12 in on-base percentage, and seventh in slugging. Starter Joe Musgrove (0.64 ERA) has been dominant in two starts since coming off the disabled list, beating the Cardinals (8-1) and Cubs (2-1). The Pirates are 16-7 at home against a team with a losing record and this is a great situational spot for the home team. Play Pittsburgh.
