St. Louis at Pittsburgh

The Cards are certainly glad to see Chris Carpenter back to form after being sidelined by injuries. Carpenter has pitched to a 2.10 ERA on the season, and 11 of his 17 starts have resulted in seven runs or less being scored in the game. What makes this one even more valuable to the UNDER is the fact that over his career he has absolutely dominated this Pirates team with a 10-1 record and 2.06 ERA. The Cards are at their worst on the road against lefthand pitching where they rank near the bottom of the league in run production. I like this one to go UNDER the total.
