Arizona Diamondbacks vs San Francisco Giants Prediction

I’m on the over in this one. I think that Arizona can get to Birdsong in this one considering they’ve been smacking around right-handed pitching for the better part of the second half of the season. The Giants have statistically hit lefties better this season and I also believe they can score a couple off of Arizona’s bullpen in the later stages. Give me the over.
