San Francisco at Los Angeles

The San Francisco Giants own a 1.5 game lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers. While this is a team that has in recent years played well at home, but struggled on the road, is now four games over .500 on the highway. Matt Cain has been highly consistent throughout his career, and is 12-5 this season backed by a rock-solid 2.90 ERA. Going back to last season, Cain has now allowed 3 runs or less in 28 of his last 34 starts, so you know that the Giants are going to be in this one to win it late. Capuano has not fared well on regular four days rest, and the Dodgers have dropped each of his last four when pitching in rotation. The Dodgers’ offense is always an issue. After scoring 2 or less, they have followed by going 6-18 in their last 24. The Giants’ offense is at their best vs. left-handed pitching are now 35-17 in their last 52. Play on San Francisco.
