The Giants are 2-5 in their last seven Sunday games, in the middle of the pack offensively and have had to deal with the loss of two key players, 2B Freddie Sanchez and closer Brian Wilson. They've lost three of the last five games, once as a favorite, and scored 3, 2, 2 and 2 runs in four of their last five games. They face San Diego starter Clayton Richard, who is 5-2 with a 3.09 ERA against them. San Diego has won two of its last three games, once as a dog, plus lost just 2-1 yesterday as a +160 dog, so they are overachieving. In fact, they've won four of their last seven games, winning twice as a dog. The Padres are 6-1 in Richard's last seven starts against the Giants and 4-0 in his last four starts in this stadium vs. the Giants. Play the Padres.
