On the season the Giants have an Over/Under record of 28-21 and a run-line W/L record of 19-32 and the A’s have an Over/Under record of 32-20 and a run-line W/L record of 29-23.

This season the A’s are 14-10 at home and the Giants are 9-14 on the road.

While the Giants are tied with the Reds for the most home wins in the Majors (19) they are 5 games under .500 on the road and they have lost their last 4 road games.

The A’s have won 8 of their last 10 games facing the Giants. [dfads params=’groups=10&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

Mike Kickham (0-0 0.00 ERA) will be making his Major League debut tonight for the Giants and in his last 5 starts in AAA ball he has gone 3-1 with a 1.72 ERA.

Jarrod Parker (2-6 5.76 ERA) gets the start for the A’s and he was solid in his last start giving up 3earned runs in 7 innings, but got little run support and took a loss facing the Texas Rangers.

Last season Parker was 0-1 against the Giants in 2 starts.

A’s slugger Josh Donaldson is swinging a hot bat and 5 of his 8 HR this season have come in the last 17 games.

Not is a tough part of the season for the Giants, as after this game they only have 2 games in their next 13 facing a team with a losing record and 3 of those series are coming against teams that are in first place in their division.

In some betting trends for this interleague game the Giants are 0-4 in their last 4 road games, 2-6 in their last 8 games as a road underdog, and they have an Over record of 9-3 in their last 12 road games.

The A’s are 4-0 in their last 4 games, 1-6 in Parker’s last 7 starts vs. a team with a winning record, and they have an Under record of 5-0 in their last 5 home games.

Jason’s Pick: This one is a tough one, but I think that Parker will have another solid outing and the A’s offense will get to the rookie San Francisco starter.
