You can bet the Pirates-Mets series with Game One featuring a line of New York -120 and Pittsburgh +110. The Pirates own this series, going 9-1 in the last ten meetings.
PITCHING MATCHUP: Mets LH Steven Matz (7-1, 2.60 ERA) vs. Pirates LH Jonathon Niese (5-2, 4.36)
The New York Mets are 7-1 in Matzs’ last 8 starts. He had seven straight wins before his last appearance against the White Sox in which Matz did not factor into the decision.
Mets are 12-4 in their last 16 road games vs. a left-handed starter.
This is not a night to back the Pirates under these circumstances Tuesday with this game postponed from Monday night.
