Premium Picks
Cincinnati at San Francisco
LOSS
The San Francisco Giants have stepped up in their home series vs. the Cincinnati Reds. The Giants have dominated on the mound where they have yielded just two total runs in the first two games of this series. This is a huge game with wild card implications, and the Giants look like a confident team while Cincinnati, and its young team, seem to be struggling down the stretch. The Reds offense has produced four total runs in three-straight losses and are 1-5 in their last six vs. a winning team. This one goes to the Giants.

Cincinnati at San Francisco
WIN
This is a big series, with each team currently sitting just outside the NL wild-card bubble. San Francisco opened the series with a 4-1 win, and the Reds are now 1-4 in their last five. Cincinnati has struggled against winning teams on the road, going 1-6 in August and 14-22 (.389) for the season. The Reds have not had much recent success playing in San Francisco either, where they are 6-10 in their last 16 visits. Cinci appears to be wearing down, and this will be their ninth straight road game. I like the San Francisco Giants in this one.
