St. Louis at Los Angeles

img10:10 PM Eastern

Dodger Stadium is a big park, great for pitchers, as we saw in the opener of this series last night, a 3-2 Cardinals win. The St. Louis bullpen is sixth in the majors in ERA (3.60) while the defense is fourth in fielding percentage. In three of his last four starts, Miles Mikolas has allowed two runs, shutting out San Diego and Washington in 10+ innings of work. The Cardinals are on a 9-4-2 run UNDER the total. Los Angeles has scored just 12 runs in the last five games. Batters are hitting .228 off starter Emmet Sheehan (3.60 ERA), and the Dodgers are on a 23-8-2 run UNDER the total. Take St. Louis/Los Angeles UNDER the total.
