Premium Pick

San Francisco has won Blake Snell's past five starts against teams with losing records and Oakland is 1-7 in JP Sears' past eight Sunday starts. Also, the Athletics have lost five of Sears' past six outings as home underdogs of +110 to +150. Snell has followed up his no-hitter against Cincinnati by allowing three runs on six hits his past 12 1/3 innings. Sears has a 4.68 ERA at home in 2024 and a 5.86 ERA in day games with a .262 opponent batting average. Four of Oakland's past five games have gone OVER and it had allowed 23 runs in four games before Saturday's 2-0 win. The Giants are 36-24-2 OVER on the road, including five of their past seven away games. The Athletics have gone OVER five of seven versus National League opponents. The wind will be blowing out at 10 mph. Take the Giants and the OVER.
