Schule's MLB "TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE" *BLOCKBUSTER*
(MLB) Cincinnati vs. St. Louis, 09/28/2016 4:15 PM, Score: 2 - 1
Point Spread: 1.50 | -153.00 Cincinnati (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the Cincinnati Reds +1.5.

The Reds hammered the Cardinals 15-2 in the series opener, but St. Louis responded with a 12-5 win in Game 2 at Busch Stadium Tuesday. I like the Reds as a dog in the rubber match.

Anthony DeSclafani will toe the rubber for the Reds, and he's pitched well all year. DeSclafani (8-5, 3.38 ERA) allowed five runs on six hits in a 6-5 loss at Milwaukee his last time out. He's 4-2 with a 3.64 ERA in 10 starts on the road this year, and he's surrendered five runs on 12 hits over 12 innings in two previous meetings with the Cardinals.

St. Louis will hand the ball to Mike Leake, who hasn't had much success against his former team. Leake (9-11, 4.72 ERA) allowed five runs on seven hits and three walks in just 3 1/3 innings in a loss to the Cubs his last time out. He's 0-1 with an 8.31 ERA in three starts versus Cinci this year.

The Cardinals have lost six of Leake's last seven home starts.

Take CIN.
