The San Francisco Giants will play the Oakland Athletics in Game 1 of their series at Oakland Coliseum on Saturday night.
The San Francisco Giants are 51-55 this season and have lost four games in a row. San Francisco is coming off of a series loss against the Dodgers, where they lost all four games played. The San Francisco pitching staff has a 3.94 ERA, a 1.27 WHIP, and a .250 opponent batting average this season. The Giants offense has scored 481 runs with a .234 batting average and a .317 on base percentage. Wilmer Flores is batting .251 with 16 home runs and 56 RBI’s for the Giants this season. The projected starter for San Francisco is Carlos Rodon, who is 9-6 with a 3.00 ERA and a 1.07 WHIP over 123 innings pitched this season.
The Oakland Athletics are 41-66 this season and have won two games in a row. Oakland is coming off of a series win against the Angels, where they won two out of the three games played in the series. The Oakland pitching staff has a 4.24 ERA, a 1.29 WHIP, and a .245 opponent batting average. The Athletics offense has scored 367 runs with a .215 batting average and a .276 on base percentage this year. Seth Brown is batting .236 with 16 home runs and 46 RBI’s for the Athletics this season. The projected starter for Oakland is Adam Oller, who is 1-4 with a 7.68 ERA and a 1.73 WHIP over 38.2 innings pitched this season.
San Francisco is 5-0 in their last 5 interleague road games and 6-2 in their last 8 Saturday games. The under is 12-4-3 in San Francisco’s last 19 game one’s of a series. Oakland is 6-1 in their last 7 home games and 9-4 in their last 13 games. The under is 4-1 in Oakland’s last 5 games. The under is 5-2 in these two teams last 7 head to head meetings in Oakland.
Oakland comes into this game with one of the worst records in baseball, but has actually played pretty well in their last 13 games. Oakland has gone 9-4 in their last 13 games and has won two out of their last three series. San Francisco has lost four games in a row and is now four games below .500. San Francisco is starting Carlos Rodon, who has allowed 10 runs in his last 18 innings pitched, but did throw seven shutout innings in his last outing. For Oakland, Adam Oller has allowed 10 runs over his last 15.2 innings of work. I like the over in this game as Oakland has been hitting better and Oller has not been good this season.
