San Francisco Giants vs. St. Louis Cardinals Preview

On the season the Giants have an Over/Under record of 77-81 and a run-line W/L record of 87-81 and the Cardinals have an Over/Under record of 74-86 and a run-line W/L record of 72-95.

This season the Cardinals are 53-31 at home and the Giants are 47-38 on the road.

In Game 1 of this series yesterday the Giants beat the Cardinals 3-0.

The Giants are 5-1 in their last 5 games against the Cardinals in St. Louis.

The Giants have won 12 of their last 13 playoff games and the reason is their pitching, which only has an ERA of 1.06 in that span. Not only that, but they have won 7 straight playoffs games on the road with a microscopic ERA of 0.74.

Jake Peavy (7-13 3.73) goes for the Giants tonight and he was solid in his last outing not giving up any earned runs in 5 innings of work in a win over the Washington Nationals.

Peavy is 0-2 with a 9.88 ERA in 3 career postseason starts against the Cardinals.

The Giants are 7-0 in Peavy’s last 7 starts.

Lance Lynn (15-10 2.74) gets the start for the Cardinals tonight and in his last outing he gave up 2 earned runs in 6 innings in taking a no decision facing the L.A. Dodgers.

Lynn has been solid in his last 5 starts with an ERA of only 2.45, but he has gotten little run support and is 0-2 in that span.

Lynn had 2 starts in the 2012 NLCS facing the Giants, but gave up 8 runs in those outing and was yanked in the 4th inning in each game.

The Cardinals are 7-3 in Lynn’s last 10 home starts, but 0-5 in his last 5 starts overall.

The Cardinals are 0-4 in their last 4 home games against the Giants when Lynn has gotten the start.

MLB Betting Trends

  • The Giants are 4-0 in their last 4 road games, 7-1 in their last 8 overall, and they have an Under record of 5-0 in their last 5 games.
  • The Cardinals are 21-7 in their last 28 games as a home favorite, 6-1 in their last 7 games following a loss, and they have an Under record of 4-0 in their last 4 games.

Cappers MLB Free Pick

I think the Cardinals will finally give Lynn some run support in this game, as their bats will get to Peavy and St. Louis will take this game and even the series.
