Money Line: 134.00 Cincinnati (Away)
Result: Loss
Taking the PIRATES here. First. Let me say that with September baseball, we are going to see some huge lines coming down the pike. The 40 man, teams looking to youth and out of contention. Veteran teams playing out the string. We won't be having days of 5-6 plays on the bases ahead that is for sure. But we can still find some good spots for a big dog, or a RL fave. -- A tough loss last night as the Angels come back to tie it at 9 only for a wild pitch to cost us a chance at a win. I can live with a hit. But a wild pitch. brutal - For Saturday night, we look to the Reds. We have made a decent coin backing Cincy in spots. Either on their totals or side. I like that Mahle is getting his second start vs the same team. He wasn't terrible in his first MLB game. 5 innings 5 Ks, but 4 walks with make life dangerous as he gave up 3 earned. Jitters gone, I expect the walks to be cut in half which helps. Pirates now have lost 14 of 19 and at 9.5 back, essentially out of the wild card hunt. Their ace got hammered last night. This is a spot of team that had playoff hopes just playing out the string. Add in that you have a young team looking to win any game, and head into the off-season on a positive ride, and we have a nice dog to cash tonight. 4* Money Maker CINCINNATI REDS
