Los Angeles at San Francisco

The LA Dodgers are headed into a dangerous area as they are now 5.5 games behind the San Francisco Giants, and on the outside looking with regard to the wildcard race. This becomes a pivotal game in their season, so their focus will need to match the magnitude of this game. The Giants haven't exactly been playing so well either at just 23-21 over their last 44 games. Tim Cain supplies them with a solid option on the mound here, but after allowing 5 runs in his last start his ERA is closing in on 3.00. Capuano has had a good season for LA, and when he pitches on an extra day of rest the Dodgers have gone 8-2 in his last 10 starts on five day’s rest. San Francisco is now just 4-10 behind Cain as a favorite of -110 to -150. Play on the Dodgers.
