Oakland is 4-1 in their last 5 games against a left-handed starter and 1-4 in their last 5 interleague games. The under is 6-2 in Oakland’s last 8 games. San Francisco is 4-1 in their last 5 Tuesday games and 37-14 in their last 51 games. The over is 5-1 in San Francisco’s last 6 Tuesday games. Oakland is 2-5 in these two teams last 7 head to head meetings.

The Giants come into this game as big favorites, but I could really see this game going either way. Jefferies has been sharp to start the season and has only allowed two earned runs. I think this is a spot where the Athletics have value and you are getting them at a great price. I would take +1.5 and Athletics to win.
