AMEDEUS' MLB DIAMOND DINGER!
(MLB) Texas vs. San Francisco,
Money Line: -117.00 San Francisco (Home)
Result: Loss
The Rangers are coming into this game playing very well recently as they have won 9 of their last 10 games. Their offense has been cooling off though as they have only scored 2 runs total in their last 2 games. They are going up against a Giants team that has not been playing well recently as they have lost their last 3 straight as well as 5 of their last 6 games but they have been losing in a lot of close games and will be hungry to bounce back here after a 2-1 loss at home to the Rangers last night. Andrew Heaney is starting for the Rangers here and he is 9-6 with a 4.14 ERA this season. He has pitched well in his last 2 starts but he has been much worse on the road this year. He has allowed at least 3 earned runs in each of his last 2 as well as 3 of his last 4 road starts. Alex Cobb is starting for the Giants here and he is 6-3 with a 3.30 ERA this season. He is coming off of a bad start where he allowed 5 earned runs but he has been much better at home all season. He has allowed 0 earned runs in 3 of his last 4 starts there and has also allowed just 2 earned runs or less in 8 of his 9 home starts this season, not giving up more than 3 earned runs in any of those. He has been pitching very well at home all year and will continue pitching well here with the Rangers offense cooling off now and he also has a very good bullpen to back him up as well. The Giants will win this game at home.
