The explanation for going Over is simple. Two above average offenses going against two mediocre pitchers with a low total.
The Cardinals rank 12th in scoring averaging 4.51 runs per game. That number goes way up to 5.25 runs per game when on the road. St. Louis has scored five runs in three of its last four games.
Pirates starter Jared Jones has a 4.17 ERA.
Pittsburgh has even a better offense than St Louis.
The Pirates have scored the fifth most runs in baseball. They are averaging 6.2 runs during their last four games.
Cardinals starting pitcher Andre Pallante has a 3.70 ERA and only 104 strikeouts in 151 innings. Pallante allowed eight runs (six earned) over five innings in a 10-3 home loss to the Giants during his last start six days ago.
The Cardinals have the seventh highest bullpen ERA at 4.52.

Our selection is on the Houston Astros to defeat the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday at 9:40pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:
Houston will start Cristian Javier -- Guess who's back? Javier has a 2.20 earned run average in three starts in September.
The Astros are still fighting with the Rangers for the AL West title. The winner gets in and the loser goes home.
Seattle will start Logan Gilbert -- He is the opposite of Javier with a 6.11 earned run average in three September outings.
The Mariners have been eliminated already in what was a disastrous season.
They are just 50-58 against opponents within the AL this year.
The play is on Houston.
