Sport: MLB
Play: Chi. Cubs +1.5 -140 (Jackson vs. Harang)
Time: 1:35 p.m. ET
Reasoning: Atlanta has scored just six runs more than it has allowed this season. It would be 11-24 if it gave 1.5 runs per game. The Braves are hitting .230 on the season (.213 in their last 10 games) and are scoring just 3.16 rpg. They also could be without Justin Upton today as he left yesterday's contest after being hit in the back by a pitch. Atlanta starter Aaron Harang has a 6.48 ERA and a 1.68 WHIP in his last three starts. Chicago would be 19-16 if it was given 1.5 rpg. The Cubs have allowed just 13 more runs than they've scored in 2014. Chicago starter Edwin Jackson has a 3.78 ERA lifetime against the Braves (12 appearances, five starts). Jackson went seven innings and allowed just one run while striking out nine and walking zero in his last start (vs. the White Sox).
Record: 65-41-5 (61.3%)
