Pirates Betting Preview
Pittsburgh comes in at 40-45 after defeating Los Angeles. The Pirates stayed resilient to pick up win number 40 last night, and they’ll look to take control of the series here Wednesday. The Pittsburgh offense is scoring 4.11 runs per Game, while batting .243, with a .321 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.34 ERA, with a 1.39 WHIP. Bryan Reynolds plated his first run since returning to the lineup, and he’s leading the Pirates in batting .(273) and hits (74), with 41 RBI. Carlos Santana has recorded a hit in seven of the last ten Games, and he’s posting splits of .242/9/43. Jack Suwinski homered last night to extend his team-lead to 18 HR, and he’s tied Santana for first on the team in RBI at 43.
Osvaldo Bido (0-1, 3.60 ERA, 13 Ks) will get the ball for Pittsburgh. The rookie righty was pulled early in his divisional matchup with Milwaukee last week, after giving up four runs in just 3.1 innings pitched. Bido has yet to get into the win column, despite pitching well through his first three big league starts, but he’ll face a tall task here with the Dodgers.

Dodgers Betting Preview
Los Angeles moved to 47-38 after falling to Pittsburgh. The Dodgers again let bettors down with a late-inning loss, and they’ll look to respond swiftly here. The Los Angeles offense is scoring 5.04 runs per Game, while batting .231, with a .326 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.24 ERA, with a 1.28 WHIP. Freddie Freeman has collected a hit in eight of the last ten Games, and he leads LAD in BA (.313) and hits (106), with 14 HR and 54 RBI. Mookie Betts went yard last night and he now leads the team in home runs (23) and RBI (57). J.D. Martinez is second on the team in both categories with 19 homers and 55 RBI.
Bobby Miller (4-1, 4.23 ERA, 105 Ks) will make the start for Los Angeles. The rookie righty managed to get back into the win column last week in Kansas City, despite allowing three runs in 5.2 innings to the Royals. Miller’s hot start in the majors has cooled off a bit after a pair of rough starts prior to facing KC, and he’ll look to bounce back with a solid outing here at home.
Pittsburgh vs Los Angeles Trends
Pittsburgh is 38-43 against the spread this season, with a 32-46-3 O/U record. Los Angeles is 43-39 against the spread this season, with a 46-31-5 O/U record.
Corey’s Free Pick
Last night had to hurt for Los Angeles, and I think they get revenge rather quickly here in Game three. The Dodgers’ bats should be able to find production off of Pirates’ rookie Osvaldo Bido, and there should be a sense of urgency to get back into the win column after blowing Game two in the ninth. LAD will be sending a first-year pitcher to the hill as well in Bobby Miller, so the Over may also be in play, but let’s back on the host to strike back here Wednesday night.
