Based on current over/unders, Tuesday's MLB slate is expected to provide plenty of high-scoring games, including Brewers vs. Pirates.
At the time of writing, the Brewers-Pirates over/under sits at 10, one of seven matchups with a double-digit total.
Recreational bettors overwhelmingly root for exciting games with plenty of scoring, so it's not at all surprising to see 12 of today's 14 games with more tickets hitting the over than the under.
Sharps, on the other hand, don't care about the potential for scoring — all that matters is value.
And it doesn't take long to determine just how the professionals are betting tonight's Brewers vs. Pirates matchup.
