Tips and predictions for the Giants at the Diamondbacks

forecast

Diamondbacks 5, Giants 4

Money line

Wait, have you seen Pfaadt's last starting line? Aside from having the funniest last name in baseball, this was pretty impressive: 7 IP, 1 ER, 2 H, 0 BB and 12 K against the NL Central champion Brewers. Before that, however, he allowed 29 earned runs in 29 innings in his last 6 starts.

While I like the D-backs here, I don't trust them enough to risk -150 on them.

HAPPEN.

Running Line/Against the Spread

Of the D-backs' 6 wins against the Giants this season, 5 have been by multiple runs. Webb has also had some issues with the bump lately, allowing 3+ ER in 5 consecutive starts.

TAKE DIAMONDBACKS -1.5 (+145).

Over/Under

The first pitch is expected to be 38 degrees, with a light 2 mph breeze out of left-center. The over is 6-2-2 in the last 10 meetings. Each team is 5-4-1 O/U in their last 10.

I like OVER 8 (-115).
