Total: 7.50 | -105.00 Under
Result: Win
This is too low of a total for a pitching matchup of Clayton Richard versus Chris Stratton and a Giants bullpen that lacks a consistent closer with Hunter Strickland sidelined.
Richard has a 4.91 road ERA. His overall statistics have been padded by pitching at Petco Park and drawing the Marlins in two of his last four starts. Miami ranks last in runs.
AT&T Park is a pitcher's park, too. However, this is evened out by the weather conditions. The forecast is for wind to be blowing out to left at 15-18 mph. A bad break for Richard, a lefthander.
The Giants blasted Richard when they last saw him on May 2 at AT&T Park. San Francisco scored six earned runs off Richard in four innings getting eight hits and drawing four walks.
Stratton has a 4.22 ERA and 1.35 WHIP. His home ERA is 5.45 this season.
