Rickenbach MLB Game #911/912 - Total Dominator - *10* Top Play OVER 9 in St Louis vs Los Angeles Dodgers @ 8:05 ET Sunday - The Cardinals are turning to rookie Mike Mayers for this spot start. It will be his MLB debut. Mayers may indeed end up having success at the MLB level but I don't expect it right off the bat. In looking at Mayers trek through the minors he struggled every time he was bumped up a level. This is the first season he's enjoyed success at the AAA level and I expect him to struggle in his first time up in the bigs. Mayers is certainly facing a confident Dodgers lineup. Los Angeles won 7-2 yesterday and the Dodgers have averaged 5.5 runs per game in their last 8 games. The Cardinals should be able to match LA run for run here as the Cards "tee off" against Scott Kazmir. The Dodgers southpaw is off of a strong start but the soft-throwing lefty has had trouble stringing together quality back to back starts this season. He did pitch well against St Louis in May but that means the Cardinals are getting a 2nd look now and Kazmir has been known for getting roughed up in situations like this. The over is 7-2 in Kazmir's 9 road starts this season and all 3 of his career starts against the Cards have gone over the total. The over is also 5-1 in the Dodgers last 6 games overall. The over is also 17-10 in Cardinals games against left-handed starters this season and 10-4 in their Sunday games this year. *10* OVER 9 in St Louis
