(MLB) St. Louis vs. Philadelphia, 07/01/2022 6:05 PM, Score: 3 - 5
Money Line: -136.00 St. Louis (Away)
Result: Loss
Miles Mikolas gave up one earned run on four hits and a walk over six innings in a 5-3 win over the Cubs on Saturday.
He struck out 9 and did not factor into the decision. Mikolas has now strung together four consecutive quality starts dating back to June 9th, giving up only 5 earned runs over 29 innings of work during the stretch. The veteran pitcher has a 14.5% K-BB%, which matches his season-long total from 2018. He now faces a Phillies team that can be hit or miss and we see him doing well here as he has a 2.53 road ERA away from St Louis.
I am backing STL here on Friday night.
