#959/960 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Over 12 Runs – St Louis Cardinals vs Colorado Rockies, Wednesday at 8:40 PM ET - This total opened 10.5 last night and was hammered up to 12 fairly quickly. Still not high enough in our opinion. Our total on this game is set at 12.9 so we still feel there is vale with the Over. These 2 combined for 21 runs on 30 hits last night. If we add in the walks, these 2 combined for 36 baserunners in 9 innings or a whopping 4 per inning! Tonight 2 lefties are headed to the mound with Quintana for St Louis and Freeland for Colorado. Both offenses excel vs south paws this season with the Cards averaging 5.45 RPG and the Rockies averaging 5.25 RPG (Colorado averages 7.34 RPG at home vs left handed pitchers). Factor in the altitude and the winds which will be blowing out to left at 10 to 15 MPH and we get not only the Coors Field factor but Coors Field Plus (wind) tonight. Quintana has pitched once at Coors this season when he was with Pittsburgh and the Rockies put up 13 runs in that game, he allowed 6 ER’s in 5 innings. Freeland has an ERA of 5.55 with a 1.60 WHIP at home this season for the Rockies. Colorado home games have averaged 11.25 total runs this year so while this seems high, it really isn’t when we factor in the weather and what we expect to be hot hitting line ups again tonight. Over 12 in this one.
