San Francisco Giants vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
The Giants are worth a look with Ray on the mound, as he’s been a top-25 pitcher this season and has a 3.28 ERA and .203 allowed batting average on the road. However, the Giants have fallen off a cliff over the last two weeks and are on the outside looking in regarding the wild card race. Ray has also allowed 22 hits and 17 earned runs in his last 18 innings, which includes just getting tagged by these Dodgers. Kershaw is having a shaky September, but he’s been solid overall, and the Dodgers have won 7 of his last 8 starts. There should also be an electric atmosphere after Kershaw said he’s retiring after the season. Expect some extra juice. Give me the Dodgers.
