Gambling911.com was dealt a setback yesterday with two losses.  As such, we can probably say that our nice little run is now over and hope to start a new one.

Today we are on the Pittsburgh Pirates at +115. 

The pitching here is Pirates LH Jeff Locke (9-4, 2.90 ERA) vs. Giants RH Matt Cain (8-8, 4.35)

Pittsburgh may be having a tough road trip but they are 4-1 vs. San Francisco in their last five games (all wins at home, we should point out).

Locke will be hungry for a win here having gone five straight without one. 

Locke had allowed three earned runs or fewer in 17 straight starts before his current drought.

Oddsmakers anticipate Locke will pitch well as they actually opened the total here at 6.5 (now 7). 

Locke has pitched well on the road, posting a 5-2 mark and 1.81 ERA in 12 starts.
