San Francisco Giants vs Detroit Tigers Prediction

I believe a pitcher as accomplished as Robbie Ray will find his footing once he gets more reps under his belt. Whoever the Tigers throw out there on the mound isn’t somebody who I’d side with over Ray. The Giants are putting together a decent week and find themselves just 3 Games out of the wild card race. These are Games the Giants can’t afford to lose, especially at home if they hope to make the postseason. Give me the Giants and the RL for max betting value.
