Washington Nationals vs San Francisco Giants Prediction

The Nats have won two games since July 29 and Gore has been a different pitcher since the all-star break. Gore has allowed 20 hits and 14 runs in his last 8.1 innings. Verlander is a shell of himself at 42 years old, but he’s allowed just 10 hits and one earned run in his last 15 innings. The Giants are the better team, at home, and they need games like this if they’re going to make a real playoff push. Also, this recent surge from Verlander is encouraging. Give me the Giants.
