12:35 Kansas City @ Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh will be going for the sweep today at home
against the Kansas City Royals.
Pittsburgh has won the last two games 4 – 2 and 5 – 3.
Kansas City has Bruce Chen on the starting tonight who
has a 5 – 5 record and a 4.37 ERA on the season. His last outing was the best
outing he has had this year going 7 innings and giving up no runs against
Minnesota. Against more formidable foes
he has not done as well. An example is
on May 25th against Baltimore he gave up 6 runs in only 4 innings of
work.
A.J. Burnett will be on the mound tonight for the
Pittsburgh Pirates today. Burnett is has
a 5 – 2 record and a 3.76 ERA this year.
He has been really strong as of late only allowing 5 runs in 31 1/3
innings of work. He has also had 4 game
winning streak coming into today which started back on May 19th.
Expect A.J. Burnett to continue on his winning streak and
add another W. He should be able to get
through the Kansas City line up quite easy today and help Pittsburgh complete
the sweep today.
Projected score: Kansas City 3 – Pittsburgh 5
Pick: Good Play Pittsburgh
(-118)
