In their last games the Nationals lost to the L.A. Dodgers 9-2 and the Pirates beat the Cincinnati Reds 3-2.<\/p>\n

On the season the Pirates have an Over\/Under record of 41-53 and a run-line W\/L record of 59-37 and the Nationals have an Over\/Under record of 46-47 and a run-line W\/L record of 40-58.<\/p>\n

This season the Nationals are 27-21 at home and the Pirates are 25-21 on the road.<\/p>\n

The Nationals are 8-3 in their last 11 home games against he Pirates.<\/p>\n

Charlie Morton (1-2 3.19 ERA) takes the mound for the Pirates tonight and in his last start he only gave up 2 earned runs in 7 innings, but did not get much run support in a no decision facing the New York Mets. [dfads params=’groups=10&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n

Dan Haren (4-10 5.61 ERA) goes for the Nationals and in his last outing he was solid not giving up any earned runs in 6 innings, but the offense did not help him out and he took a no decision against the Miami Marlins.<\/p>\n

The Nationals have dropped Dan Haren’s last 10 starts and he is in the longest winless drought of his career.<\/p>\n

Morton is 0-2 with a 4.11 ERA in 3 career starts against Washington but hasn’t faced them in nearly 2 seasons.<\/p>\n

Washington’s Bryce Harper is hitting .206 in 17 games since returning from a knee injury and he has struck out in 11 of his last 23 at bats.<\/p>\n

The Pirates are hitting an NL-worst .225 with men in scoring in position and their offense only ranks 26th in the Majors in both runs and team batting average.<\/p>\n

In some betting trends for this NL match up the Pirates are 6-1 in their last 7 games as a road underdog, 1-4 in their last 5 road games, and they have an Under record of 9-2 in their last 11 games.<\/p>\n

The Nationals are 1-6 in their last 7 overall, 0-10 in Haren’s last 10 starts, and they have an Under record of 8-2 in their last 10 games.<\/p>\n

Jason’s Pick:<\/strong> Both teams’ offenses are struggling, but I have to go with the Pirates on the road in this one, as I think Haren’s bad luck will continue.<\/p>\n
