Cardinals send Pineiro to hill in Cincinnati

Baseball Betting Lines

07/03/2009 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Joel Pineiro hopes for some run support tonight when the St. Louis Cardinals begin a three-game set with the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park.

Pineiro lost for the ninth time in his last 11 starts on Sunday against the Minnesota Twins, as he allowed five runs (three earned) and eight hits in 6 2/3 innings, dropping him to 6-9 on the year to go along with a 3.44 earned run average.

Over the past two months, though, St. Louis has provided Pineiro with an abysmal 2.34 runs-per-start. His nine losses lead the majors.

Pineiro lost to the Reds earlier in the year and is 3-1 with a 2.97 ERA in five starts against them.

St. Louis, meanwhile, enters tonight's tilt on a high note after winning the final two games of its four-game set with the San Francisco Giants. The Cardinals managed to even the series on Thursday, as Todd Wellemeyer threw 7 1/3 innings to help St. Louis to a 5-2 win.

Wellemeyer (7-7) scattered seven hits and two runs with a walk and six strikeouts for the Cardinals, who had lost six of seven before the two wins.

"Just one consistent delivery to where the ball looked the same," Wellemeyer said of his key to success. "Every pitch looks the same out of your hand, every delivery looks the same. That's how you get them off-balance."

Cincinnati also comes in on a two-game winning streak after Joey Votto's single to left in the bottom of the 10th on Thursday scored Chris Dickerson and gave the Reds a 3-2 win over Arizona.

Votto totaled four hits in all while Dickerson was 2-for-4 with an RBI single of his own as Cincinnati won for the fifth time in seven games.

"Obviously we want to take some sort of momentum going into this Cardinals series this weekend," said Votto. "I think losing today, especially to have not scored a lot of runs and to have disappointed Aaron (Harang) today, would not have been a good thing going into this weekend."

Aaron Harang pitched well, yielding just four hits and two runs over seven full frames. The right-hander, who remains without a win over his last seven starts, walked three and struck out eight. Francisco Cordero (1-2) received the win for pitching a scoreless top half of the 10th.

Cincinnati, tonight, turns to 23-year-old righty Homer Bailey, who will be making his third start of the season, but is coming off his first win of the year. Bailey defeated the Cleveland Indians on Saturday, surrendering three runs and three hits in five innings to lower his ERA to a still-lofty 8.68.

Bailey, though, has been awful in his two starts against the Cardinals, losing both contests, while giving up 12 runs in just 7 1/3 innings of those contests.

Cincinnati has won four of its seven meetings with the Cards this season.
