April 16th Sports Wager of the Day!

Game: San Francisco Giants @ Los Angeles Dodgers
Sport: Major League Baseball
Pick: Over 8 runs, -120

Reason for Pick:
The San Francisco Giants offense was stiffled the past four games due to facing some great pitching (Peavy, Young, Billingsley and Kershaw). They do have the ability to score SOME runs as evident by last night's three runs after Kershaw was taken out of the game.

Pitching against the Giants is Dodgers SP Eric Stults. Seven batters on the Giants roster are hitting over .300 against Stults so some runs should come from the Giants off of Stults or the LAD bullpen.

Majority of runs in this game will come from the Dodgers as they are facing the notoriously slow starter, Barry Zito, who was roughed up in his first start allowing four runs and seven hits in four innings of play. This included three runs in the first inning alone.
