The San Francisco Giants and the New York Mets will play the third game of the 4-game series at the Citi Field on Wednesday night. The Mets won the 2 games of the doubleheader on Tuesday.

Probable Pitcher:
Carlos Rodon (1-0, 1.50 ERA) will be on the mound for the Giants in the 3rd game of the series. Rodon allowed one run on two hits and two walks over seven innings Friday, striking out nine and earning a win over the Guardians. He forced nine swinging strikes and got 22 called strikes, throwing 90 total pitches in the outing.

Chris Bassitt (2-0, 0.75 ERA) will start for the Mets in the 3rd game of the series. Bassitt improved to 2-0 on the season Friday by holding the Diamondbacks to just one run on two hits over six innings, striking out six and walking two.
BETTING TRENDS
The total has gone UNDER in 7 of San Francisco's last 10 games.
San Francisco are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games.
The total has gone UNDER in 6 of NY Mets' last 7 games against San Francisco.
NY Mets are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games at home.
Prediction
The Mets are looking unstoppable as they have won 9 of their first 12 games of the season and 4 of their 5 games at home. The Under has been cashing for both teams and with this pitching matchup I have no other choice than stick to the under.
PICK: Under 7 (-125)
