The Giants-Dodgers game this evening features the top exposure with LA getting better than 90% of the action as a -204 favorite after opening at -180. Both these clubs are playing around .500 Baseball right now with the Dodgers three games above the mark and the Giants one game below.
San Francisco won the last two meetings but these teams have mostly split the last ten. The Dodgers have won eight of their last ten games overall.
PITCHING MATCHUP: Giants LH Derek Holland (4-6, 4.54 ERA) vs. Dodgers RH Ross Stripling (5-1, 1.65)
Holland hasn't worked more than 6 1/3 innings in any of his 13 turns, but he has been effective in his last two outings, including Sunday's win in Washington when he delivered five scoreless innings in a winning cause.
Stripling joined the Dodgers' injury-ravaged rotation in early May and has emerged as the club's best starter, yielding no more than two runs in any of his seven turns since leaving the bullpen for good.
The Giants are 9-1 in their last 10 games vs. a right-handed starter.
Five of the last games in this series have gone OVER the current number of 8.
