Atlanta Braves vs San Francisco Giants Prediction

Massive series for both teams, and the Braves have been able to scrap together two extra inning wins. At some point, the offense of the Giants should pick up and luck should tilt toward their side. Robbie Ray is getting more comfortable as he gets consistent reps under his belt, and the Braves have lost 6 straight games Grant Holmes has pitched. I'll lay the cheap price with the Giants at home.
