San Francisco Giants vs Atlanta Braves Prediction
I don’t like the way the Giants are playing right now, and the Braves have been one of the biggest underachievers all year. I’m not excited about this game. So, I’m rolling with the over. Birdsong has allowed 10 hits and 11 earned runs in his last 13 innings. Elder has a 5.65 ERA and 1.51 WHIP on the season. In 37.2 home innings, Elder has a 6.69 ERA and .314 allowed batting average. Elder has allowed four or more earned runs in four of his last five starts. No, thanks. Expect some fireworks in this game. Give me the over.
