0.5 unit on St. Louis -184 (moneyline) (risk 0.5 to return 0.77)
Result:
WIN

The St. Louis Cardinals have put the wraps on their fourth consecutive playoff appearance, but have work to do to lock up the NL Central where they currently hold a 2.5 game lead on the Pittsburgh Pirates. They should be in good hands tonight as Adam Wainwright goes for his 20th win, so expect a strong team focus here to get it done for him. Wainwright was roughed up a bit last month, but over his last three starts, he has been locked in as he has worked 26 innings allowing a grand total of two runs. His last time out vs. this Cubs lineup saw him work seven innings of shutout baseball. Travis Wood carries a 4.86 ERA into this game. And for his career, the numbers are about the same vs. St. Louis where he sports a 4.86 ERA against them. The Cards own a 54-22 record in Wainwright's last 76 starts vs. a losing team, and win number 20 is in order tonight. Play on St. Louis.
