Result:
LOSS

After last night's UNDER, 3 of 4 games played here in St. Louis this series this season have gone UNDER and it was the 7th time in the last 10 played here that the score has gone UNDER. While neither of these two pitchers inspires much fear, I see another low-scoring affair. Oliver Perez, awful in Pittsburgh, he needs to just survive here enough innings to get the very solid Mets bullpen. With Darren Oliver doing such a great job in relief on Saturday, the Mets have their main bullpen guys ready to go today. Over the course of the season, they posted a 3.25 road ERA with 82% save percentage. St. Louis also has a very good bullpen to backup their rookie starter, Anthony Reyes. The Cardinals are now allowing just 2 runs per game in the playoffs. They are 13-4 UNDER this season vs. starting pitchers with an ERA of 5.70 or worse. I like the UNDER here.
