Phillies (Hamels) --- Giants (Zito) UNDER [-105]
I'm leaning on the UNDER here.
Hamels (7-5, 4.42 ERA), has been inconsistent this year, but he's been settling down in recent weeks.The left-hander is 3-0 with a 3.00 ERA in his last five starts. He earned a win Tuesday night, giving up one run and four hits while striking out nine in eight innings of Philadelphia's 4-3 victory over Arizona.
Hamels is 3-0 with a 4.03 ERA in four starts versus the Giants.
Barry Zito (6-10, 4.54)
Zito is 1-1 with a 1.89 ERA in his last three starts. The left-hander surrendered one run and nine hits in 5 2-3 innings before San Francisco broke a tie to beat Pittsburgh 3-2 on Tuesday night.
Zito is 2-1 with a 3.50 ERA in three starts against the Phillies, who have been struggling at the plate. They've lost three of four - all on the road - scoring two runs or fewer in each of the defeats.
Brian Wilson pitched the ninth Saturday for his 27th save in 31 chances.
Wilson has not allowed a run in his last 9 1-3 innings, converting all five of his save opportunities during that stretch.
Whaddaya guys think? Can go either way or UNDER for sure? The ML throws me off here - I think both teams have a decent chance of picking this game although odds are slightly better for the Giants with Freddy Sanchez in.
