Last night's win (another bizarre ending) by Boston looked ominous for the Cards with Big Papi seemingly rallying the troops, and that sort of momentum, at this stage, is dangerous.
Another problem would seem to be Adam Wainwright's form; he struggled in Game 1, in contrast to Lester who has given up just five runs in 27 innings.
Interestingly though, Lester's worst outing was on the road, and Wainwright has been significantly stronger at home in the postseason. Also, Boston are hitting righties at .179 L5, whereas St Louis are hitting lefties at a .292 clip.
I'm opposing the herd!
Pick: St Louis Cardinals @ 2.2
102-108 (+2.31)
