The Cleveland Guardians and Pittsburgh Pirates are both playing poorly since returning from the All-Star break but overall the Guardians have played better the last two weeks. Cleveland is 6-5 over its last 11, while Pittsburgh has lost 9 of its last 11. Cleveland has remained in first or second place in the American League Central most of the first half of the season, while Pittsburgh jumped out to an early season lead and now in a freefall.
Pittsburgh has problems scoring runs at 26th in baseball and its team ERA has inflated to 4.36 which is 17th.

Home Dogs in game #1 of a series, with no rest, off an extra inning game with 3+ pitchers used are just 31% the past 4 seasons.
Take the Cleveland Guardians.
