Visit Touthouse.com for more MLB lines and baseball picks from Robbie Gainous

Pittsburgh starter Ross Ohlendorf became the third Pirates pitcher in as many days to win for the first time this season, limiting the Phillies to five hits over seven innings during a 2 to 0 victory Friday night. Phillies starter Jamie Moyer was solid but two infield singles by Pittsburgh and the pitcher’s throwing error led to Philadelphia’s fourth loss in five games. We look for the Phillies to bounce back from their two losses and get back on track tonight versus the Pirates. Philadelphia is 23-9 on the road with a money line of -100 to -125 over the last 2 seasons and 38-23 in road games against left-handed starters over the last 3 seasons. Phillies starter for tonight’s game Kendrick is 18-3 versus teams outscored by opponent by 0.5 or more runs per game on the season since 1997. Our TPR Index projects a Phillies victory by 2.83 runs over the Pirates so lay the short price as the Phillies stop the bleeding and get back in the win column on Saturday night.
