This is an 8* play OVER Cincinnati-San Francisco

This is a rematch of a series played last weekend in Cincinnati. The Reds and Giants split four games, but all of them went Over. Tonight's series opener in San Francisco should also go Over the number. The Giants offense has slowly woken up. After those four straight Overs last weekend in Cincinnati, they put 25 more runs on the board in two games at Colorado. Unfortunately for them, they also allowed 12 yesterday as what would have been a remarkable comeback at Coors Field (trailed 7-0 after two innings) ultimately fell short. That was the 5th time in the past 10 games the Giants pitching staff allowed 10 or more runs. Cincinnati's offense really hasn't been producing that much this year, but they did score 37 times in four games vs. the Giants last weekend. They should score plenty more here against Dereck Rodriguez, who they homered off four times last Saturday while scoring eight runs in just five innings. Rodriguez has allowed a total of 14 runs in his last two starts. The Reds go with Castillo, who allowed four runs in his start vs. SF last weekend. Play OVER Cincinnati-San Francisco
