The Pitsburgh Pirates made some early noise by starting the season at 5-0, with all five games on the road. They have been pretty bad since. It does look like the Pirates are one of those bad teams playing good right now. The Pirates have won three of their last four. The Pitching has been much better as they have allowed just 10 total runs in the four games. The Giants have never gotten traction this season, and enter the game with a 23-25 record. They are in the worst division in baseball, that is the Dodgers, and then everyone else. The division bias comes into play here. The Giants have a winning record inside their division, but not outside. They are 10-6 in their last 16 division games. I think they struggle here. Make the play on Pittsburgh.
