Mariners vs Giants Prediction
The teams have traded victories over the past few years, as each recorded five wins in the last ten games. The Giants were better in the previous three H2Hs. Bryan Woo dominated the Giants last year as he allowed a 1.29 ERA in 7.0 innings and had a .148 BA in 27 at-bats. Jordan Hicks struggled in his previous game against Seattle; he didn’t complete a single innings as he came in as a reliever and posted a 13.50 ERA. Bth Woo and Hicks were impressive in their first respective starts of this season, and I am backing them to have another strong outing. Both will record quality starts, so I am going with Under.
