Los Angeles at St. Louis

img8:15 PM Eastern

Los Angeles is on a 5-7 slide after losing the last two at home to Miami, 2-1 and 3-2, as chalk of -295 and -260. They're favored again, though starter Emmet Sheehan (4.78 ERA) has a 5.06 ERA on the road. St. Louis comes home from a perfect 4-0 road trip, scoring 30 runs while winning all four as underdogs. The offense is seventh in runs scored, plus ninth in on-base percentage and slugging. The Cardinals are on a 10-5 run, so back the home dog. Play St. Louis. 

1.5 units on St. Louis +155 (moneyline) (risk 1.5 to return 3.83)
