**11-1 RUN** FAN APPRECIATION SHOCKER! (ONLY $25!)
(MLB) Chi Cubs vs. Pittsburgh, 09/22/2020 7:05 PM, Score: 2 - 3
Point Spread: 1.50 | -120.00 Pittsburgh (Home)
Result: Win
I'm playing PITTSBURGH on the run-line (+1.5 runs) Brault was brilliant in his last game. Facing the Cards, he tossed a complete game and gave up just two hits. His catcher had this to say: “He was obviously phenomena. That’s the most excited I’ve been on a baseball field in quite a while. Almost felt like I threw a complete game. It was fun. Team needed it. Couldn’t be happier for Steven, for sure." Quintana comes off the injured list and likely won't be around that long. Cubs may not have Kris Bryant as he left yesterday's game, his manager David Ross noting: "I'm worried, but I don't know ..." Prior to yesterday's 5-0 loss, the Pirates had dropped three straight 1-run games. Meanwhile, prior to yesterday's win, the Cubs' previous three victories had all come by a single run. With Brault outlasting Quintana, expect AT LEAST another "run-line cover" for the Pirates in this one.
