With a day game and the temperature right at 80 degrees, the ball will carry much better today in San Diego. St. Louis starter Miles Mikolas has an ERA of 7.76 on the road compared to his 2.48 ERA at home. Plus, Padres lefty Joey Lucchesi is allowing almost one run higher during the day compared to his night starts. Take the Over.

The last time Joey Luchessi was at home he pitched seven shutout innings in a 2-0 win against the Brewers. The Padres have gone 6-3 behind him at Petco Park and six of those games stayed Under the total. The Padres have won four straight and go for the sweep while the Cardinals have lost five straight. Miles Mikolas has been sharp in his last two starts allowing one run combined. Under (-103) is the top play.

This is a reasonable price on the Padres facing Miles Mikolas, who has a 7.76 road ERA. On the flip side, Joey Lucchesi has been dynamite at home with a 2.70 ERA and a .195 batting average allowed. Back San Diego to send the Redbirds to their sixth straight loss.
