Cardinals are the team to bet on with Nikolas starting on the mound, who can minimize damage from hits and generate more strikeouts than Rich Hill that is starting on the other side for the Pirates. Cardinals top 10 in hits and runs while also being one of the hardest bats to strikeout, which is not a good sign for Rich Hill who is averaging 1.5 runs per inning in the last 17 played with 17 hits and 19 strikeouts over that stretch. It's also the chance for STL to avoid a sweep on the road, losing the first two games in tight fashion.

Official Play: STL MoneyLine

Side Bet: Mikolas over 4.5 Strikeouts
