Sides 3-0 Wed, totals 0-2. Not a storybook Wednesday but completely flipped around the last days of June. Went from 6 under .500 in 3 final days in June to +12 over .500 in the first 7 days in July. A difference of a week makes a big impression.
Let's keep this going through the end of August!

$300 San Fran -115
$200 Florida/San Fran UNDER 8.5
Sadowski tries to keep the scoreless innings streak alive. Not every up and coming new face will have success like this. Sadowski has completely shut down the opposition. He has allowed 7 hits over 13 innings. Sadowski has a WHIP of 0.85 after the 2 starts. Volstad will try to out duel Sadowski but it wont be easy. He has allowed 16 ERs in his last 4 away from home. Volstad is 8-2-1 to the under in his last 11 as a plus money starter. He faced SF this season allowing just 2 ERs at home in a 2-1 final. The total will rest on Volstad, and if he can pitch similar to the last mtg, this one should clear the under easy. Florida has scored 38 over their last 10 games, and in their 7 other than the Nats series, just 22 runs. Roughly 3 RPG. If this occurs again the Giants win a low scoring contest.
$200 SD/Arizona OVER 9
The over is 14-4, last 18 mtgs, and 58 runs were scored in the previous 5 in Arizona. Both starters help vouch for an over today. Gaudin has a 5.23 ERA on road, while M.Scherzer has a 5.40 ERA at home. Gaudin has allowed 12 ERs in his 2 mtgs with Zona while Scherzer has allowed just 2 ERs in his 2, but the relief has allowed 9 runs in those 2 ballgames. All four games these guys pitched in went over. Opponents have brought in 29 runs total in Scherzers last 5. Between all of the 4 starts in this series between these starters, there were 45 totals runs in those games, averaging 11 per. Even if each starter gives up a few each, the relief should allow at least 3-4 putting this one at the 10+ run mark. Zona has averaged 7.5 RPG over Gaudins last 2, and SD averaged 5.5 RPG in Scherzers last 2.
$200 Boston -165
Wakefield will look to master the As for a third straight time Wednesday. Wake is 6-0 at home this year. The As have only scored 3 total runs in his last 2 outings against them. Tim didnt allow a run in his lone home start vs. Oak last season. This year he went the distance in Oakland allowing 2 ERs. Oakland has only scored a total of 14 runs in his 4 outings previous to today. Cahill will go for the As, and after 7 consecutive quality starts, his recent 2 outings were anything but quality. He allowed 12 ERs over 7 and a third, and the opponents put up a combined 26 runs in those games. Opponents have scored 36 runs in his last 4. Wakefield is on the bounce-back and is 3-1 in a bounce-back effort on the season. Sox have also outscored Oakland in the last 5 Fenway mtgs by a 24-13 margin.
