Our Pittsburgh Pirates vs Atlanta Braves Prediction
The Pirates are the small favorite in this game; however, the Braves look to be the best betting option. This is largely because of the home/away splits between the starting pitchers. Homes has made eight road appearances (seven starts) this season, in which he has allowed 17 runs (16 earned) over 39.1 innings. Jones, on the other hand, has made just three home starts this season, but has allowed 11 runs (10 earned) over 13.0 innings.
Holmes by no means has been the most consistent pitcher this season, but given Jones’ struggles when pitching at home, our Pittsburgh Pirates vs Atlanta Braves prediction is: Atlanta Braves ML.
