Our selection is on the Seattle Mariners to defeat the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday at 4:10pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Pittsburgh will start Bailey Falter -- has been pretty good this season but the team has not been so good.

The Pirates are just 12-29 in all of their road games this season.

They are also 7-14 in their 21 games played against opponents from the American League.

Seattle will start Bryan Woo -- has been a really consistent pitcher for Seattle.

The Mariners have a winning record this year and look to keep it.

The Pirates will not win a seventh game in a row. We're on the Mariners.
