BETTING TRENDS

San Francisco are 7-2 SU in their last 9 games against Philadelphia.

The total has gone UNDER in 4 of San Francisco's last 5 games on the road.

The total has gone OVER in 6 of Philadelphia's last 8 games.

Philadelphia are 1-6 SU in their last 7 games.

Prediction

The Phillies have now lost 4 straight games and 7 of their last 10 but they're averaging 4.4 runs per game in the last 10 games. Ranger Suarez is coming from allow 5 runs in his last start so expect the Giants to score they average on this game. I think the over hits again.

PICK: Over 9 (-110)
