This is a 10* TOP TOTAL on the OVER Giants/Nationals.

San Francisco has taken the first two games of this series, and each has fallen UNDER the number.

We're expecting the finale though to be a much higher-scoring contest.

Washington has now seen the total go UNDER in three straight, while losing four in a row as well. That's significant in this case for us to note, as the Nationals have seen the total go OVER the number in ten of their last 13 after three or more losses in a row.

These starting pitchers have been decent, but regression seems imminent.

The Giants go with Logan Webb (1-1, 2.55 ERA), who gav eup three runs off six hits over three innings in a loss to the Mets in his last outing.

The home side counters with rookie right-hander Joan Adon (1-2, 5.87), who threw six shutout innings with five strikeouts in a win over the Diamondbacks in his last outing.

These starters have been all over the map already with their performances and I expect that to continue here.

When you add it all up, we can look for this total to fly well OVER before the final out is made.

Good luck, NP
