The Orioles have won two games in a row and three of their last six, but still come in with an 18-35 record, being 8-15 at home. The Cardinals have gone 11-15 on the road and just swept the Diamondbacks at home. Today, however, the bet is about Charlie Morton, who is making his first start since May 7th. All 10 appearances for Morton have resulted in Orioles losses. Erick Fedde gave up four runs in his last start against the Tigers, but he didn't allow any runs in his two previous starts. Cardinals to win.

We like Under 5.5s. It worked yesterday on the Orioles starting a bad starting pitcher in Boston in Dean Kremer. They are starting another one today in Charlie Morton (0-7, 7.78) back home, so I certainly wouldn't be shocked with a loss here. But Morton has been much, much better of late -- albeit as a middle reliever. Not real hot in Baltimore and any slight winds apparently blowing in. The Cards' Erick Fedde has a 2.43 road ERA and hasn't allowed a run over his past two away starts totaling 14.2 innings.

The O's just had to navigate through 3 games in 2 days at BOS and are dealing with all kinds of injuries and questions in their bullpen. They are a bottom 3 team in MLB in win % at home since June 21 of last year. Charlie Morton returns to the rotation after serving in a mop up role. He has a 10.22 ERA as a starter this season (.340 BA) and he cannot keep the ball in the yard. Erick Fedde is back in good form for STL, with a 2.55 ERA in May. The Cards have won 14 of last 18 games and 9 of the last 11 on the road.
