Point Spread: 1.50 | -135.00 Colorado (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the Colorado Rockies +1.5.
The Pirates have crushed the Rockies in each of the first three games of this series, but I like Colorado's chances of getting one back in the finale at home this afternoon.
Chad Bettis will toe the rubber for the Rockies, and he's coming off back to back wins. Bettis (8-5, 4.46 ERA) allowed one run on four hits, fanning six in five innings in a 7-4 home win over San Diego his last time out. He's 3-1 with a 3.51 ERA in his last six starts, and he's pitched better in day games than he has at night.
The Pirates hand the ball to Jeff Locke, and the southpaw has really struggled on the road. Locke (8-11, 4.48 ERA) allowed five runs on eight hits over 6 1/3 innings in a 6-2 loss to the Dodgers in LA his last time out. He's 4-7 with a 5.69 ERA in 14 starts away from PNC Park, and he's 1-3 with a 3.52 ERA in eight starts in the afternoon.
The Rockies lineup is hitting .321 over a combined 53 at bats versus Locke, and Nolan Arenado is 4-for-9 with a home run.
Take COL.
