San Francisco Giants vs. Miami Marlins Prediction

I’m on the under in this game. It’s a solid starting pitching matchup of Ray vs. Cabrera, and the Marlins have regressed back to the Marlins of the last couple of years, who struggle against lefties. On the other side, the Giants haven’t really been hitting well overall in their own right and I think we’re in store for another pitchers duel here. Give me the under.
