Fresh off a sweep of the New York Mets, the Pittsburgh Pirates will try to sustain their hot form as they host the St. Louis Cardinals for a three-game series starting Monday at PNC Park.
The Pirates completed a 3-game sweep of the Mets behind an exceptional performance from their offense and pitching. Averaging only 3.5 runs per game this season, the Pirates' offense exploded against the Mets in this series, averaging 10 runs per game in 3 games. Pittsburgh’s terrific pitching also kept the Mets’ bats silent throughout the weekend.
The Cardinals also swept the Cleveland Guardians, capped off by their 7-0 blowout win in Sunday’s series finale. St. Louis is third in the NL Central with a 47-38 record, 2.5 games behind the 49-35 Chicago Cubs. In their last five games, the pitching staff has pitched a 3.40 ERA and batted a .232 BA with 4.2 runs per game.

Our Pittsburgh Pirates vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction
Why should you bet on the Pirates to win? (Win $105 on a $100 Bet) – St. Louis is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games against Pittsburgh, but there’s a good chance they will face heavy resistance from the Pirates, who have been smoking teams with their prolific offense as of late. The Pirates are averaging 7.5 runs per game over their last five games, all while maintaining their status as one of the best pitching teams in the MLB with a 3.78 ERA. Monday’s starter, Andrew Heaney, has allowed 14 runs in his last two starts. However, neither team has the edge in this matchup since the Cards' projected starter, Erick Fedde, also yielded seven earned runs in his last start. This ballgame might turn into a high-scoring contest, which would bode well for a Pirates team that might have just found its groove behind the plate.
Our betting prediction for the Pittsburgh Pirates vs. the St. Louis Cardinals: the Pirates will win.
