Pittsburgh Pirates has scored 565 runs and allowed 529. Pittsburgh Pirates has 992 hits this season.

Pittsburgh Pirates ML is the better angle in Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Cincinnati Reds because the matchup support is good enough to back the number without pretending every stat needs to sing in harmony.
