#922 ASA PLAY ON San Francisco Giants -1.5 on the Run Line (+100) over Chicago White Sox, Wednesday at 3:45 PM ET - This game is being priced with too much emphasis on the starting pitching match-up and, even then, there is a flawed perception here! When one first looks at this match-up they see Garrett Crochet with a 3.61 ERA this season and a 3.28 ERA in his career. One also sees Logan Webb with similar numbers as he has a 3.17 ERA this season and a 3.36 ERA in his career! Before we even get into the vast difference between the recent trending of the White Sox and Giants, there is also a big difference in trending between these pitchers and it is not what one would expect given those numbers for Crochet. The White Sox southpaw is dealing with a major stretch of struggles with only his last start, though short, an exception! Crochet has not lasted more than 4 innings in any of his last 7 starts and has averaged 3.1 innings per start! Behind him is a very bad White Sox bullpen and also Crochet is off a scoreless 4-inning start but this followed him having given up 13 earned runs in 13.1 innings in his 4 outings since the All Star break! As for Webb, he is in phenomenal current form as he has allowed only 2 earned runs in 29.1 innings over his last 4 starts. Also, on the season he is 7-3 with a 2.26 ERA in his home starts! Opponents are hitting only .223 against him in San Francisco. Now, about those team trends, the Giants have won 11 of 16 home games and are still very much alive in the Wild Card race. The White Sox, on other hand, are going down this season as one of the worst teams in all-time MLB history. They head into this one with just 3 wins in 35 games and also are 12-53 on the road this season. San Francisco wins this season have featured 72% of them coming by a margin of at least 2 runs. Chicago's losses have seen 72 of 97 come by a multi-run margin. Strong odds on yet another blowout loss for the White Sox here. Lay the run line in this one!
