Result:
WIN

Pittsburgh won its third straight in grand fashion by a 12-0 score over the Cubs on Monday while pounding out 16 hits and knocking out Jake Arrieta in the third inning. Chicago has now lost four of its last five road games and is only 35-33 away from home this season. Kyle Hendricks goes for the Cubs tonight and he has allowed 10 runs on 28 hits in 25 1/3 innings at PNC Park the last four years. Steven Brault will make his first start for the Pirates after starting seven games in 2016. The Cubs are just 1-5 in Hendricks' last five outings after allowing at least five runs their previous game and they have won only one of their last five road contests against left-handed starters. Pittsburgh has won five of its last seven versus right-handed starters. There is good value in the home underdog, so play the Pirates.
