THE DUKE SPORTS
NY Mets Over (7') for 1.5 Units
This series has gone 20-8 O/U and 4-1 O/U in Pittsburgh. Tonight, we'll look for the Mets' lineup to follow up with another rare run producing effort, this time against James McDonald who controls a lofty 8.10 ERA in 4 relief appearances vs New York. The Pirates' starting pitching has been bad and McDonald, who has looked sharp since coming over from the Dodgers, should fall into the slumping circle. On the other hand, the Mets' starter -- Jonathon Niese-- has looked great recently, but Pittsburgh is batting a healthy .273 vs lefties and should drive in some runs. Niese is 4-1 O/U when the 'total' is set at 7 to 8'. Pittsburgh is 7-3 O/U in game 2 of a series, and 10-4 O/U as a home dog of +110 to +150.
