Result:
WIN

This is the 15th game in 15 days for Pittsburgh, as well as the end of a seven-game road trip. They've looked like a road weary team, losing six of nine, including the last two by 2-1 scores. Pittsburgh is #26 in baseball in runs scored. This is the third road game already for starter Gerrit Cole (5.29 ERA), with a 5.73 ERA away from home. The Pirates are on a 3-9 run on the road and face a St. Louis squad playing its third straight home game. The Cardinals are 28-11 in Mike Wacha's (3.00 ERA) last 39 home starts. Wacha fanned eight with two walks over six innings against the Yankees on Friday. Wacha threw 61-of-98 pitches for strikes, ringing up 14 missed swings. And St. Louis is 12-2 when Wacha starts at home against a team with a losing record. Play St. Louis.
