Pittsburgh at St. Louis 8:15 ET
Pirates over Cardinals- Still hard to believe that the Pirates are leading the division this late in the season but some of that falls on the Cardinals who have dropped six of their last eight games as these two open a three-game series. The Pirates who took two of three from St. Louis last weekend are 10-6 against the 'Bird's this season. A.J. Burnett (7-9, 3.09 ERA) is 8-5 with a 3.79 ERA in his career against the Cardinals including a win over them last Saturday. This time around it's PITTSBURGH!
