MLB Premium Play 08/28: Milwaukee Brewers @ Pittsburgh Pirates

MLB - 955 Milwaukee Brewers @ 956 Pittsburgh Pirates

(Starting Pitchers: T. Gorzelanny vs C. Morton)

***TOP PLAY***
Pittsburgh will start Charlie Morton tonight and he is currently in great form by allowing just 1, 2, 2 and 2 earned runs on his last four games! He is coming from a great start at San Francisco and his 3.21 ERA, 2.71 FIP and 3.32 xFIP in August don't lie: he's on fire right now! His only weakness is pitching against LH batters, but Milwaukee's lineup is loaded with RH batters, so this won't be a problem tonight.

Tom Gorzelanny will start for Milwaukee and after a nice span with quality starts, he was pounded on his last two games against Cincinnati and the Cardinals by allowing 7 and 5 earned runs! Therefore, all his confidence is gone! Pittsburgh's offense is streaky, but they are actually very solid while facing LH pitchers with .277 BA on their last 10 games against them, besides being #5 in the league on hitting against LH pitchers with a .740 OPS! After losing yesterday's game, I believe Pittsburgh will bounce back tonight and so, I'll be taking them in here.

Pick: 4 units (Double Dime Play) on 956 Pittsburgh Pirates ML (w/ C. Morton) @ -146 / 1.68 on 5Dimes
