Going for my 6th straight "Best Bet" win in a row

Philadelphia at Pittsburgh

Phillies are going for their 13th victory in 16 games and a major league-leading 41-22 on the road this year, & going for the their 2nd win of game 3 in this series.Happ (10-2, 2.59 ERA) was rumored to be part of a potential trade with Toronto for ace Roy Halladay, but that never materialized. Instead, the NL East-leading Phillies (73-51) traded four minor league prospects to Cleveland for Cliff Lee, and the reigning AL Cy Young Award winner and Happ have created a formidable top of the rotation in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia has also won four in a row behind J.A. Happ, who is 3-0 with a sterling 1.21 ERA in that span. The southpaw is also 5-1 with a 1.85 ERA in 10road starts this year.

On the rubber for the Pirates is Charlie Morton (3-6, 5.21), who again tries to put together two solid starts in a row.He has a 9.49 ERA his last three starts, walking 8 in 12 innings! He has more walks than Ks during that stretch.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are 3-19 as a home underdog of +150 to +200 over the last three seasons, losing by massive 3.7 runs per game.
