Athletics Continue to Struggle

The Athletics continue to struggle and in the last Game against the Los Angeles Angels, they were defeated again. The Athletics scored six runs, while the pitching gave up eight runs, and that led to the defeat. Brent Rooker did have another strong Game, finishing with two hits and three RBIs. The Athletics are averaging 4.16 runs, while their pitching is giving up 4.76 runs per Game. The offense is ranked 21st in the league, while the pitching is ranked 26th. Brent Rooker has hit 25 home runs and driven in 75 RBIs. Getting the start for the A’s will be JP Sears, who sits with a 7-8 record and an ERA of 4.81. In his last start against the Houston Astros he went six innings giving up nine hits and eight runs. 

Giants Need These Wins

It’s probably too little too late, but if they want any chance to secure the climb back, the Giants are going to need to sweep this one. On Sunday, the Giants faced off against the Colorado Rockies, and they were able to secure the 5-4 victory. Matt Chapman finished with three hits and two RBIs. The Giants are averaging 4.42 runs, while their pitching is giving up 4.56 runs per Game. The offense is ranked 14th in the league, while the pitching is ranked 20th. Matt Chapman has hit 15 home runs and driven in 48 RBIs. Getting the start for the Giants will be Robbie Ray, who sits with a 1-0 record and an EAR of 1.80. Against the Los Angeles Dodgers, he went five innings giving up zero hits and one run. 

Why the Giants Will Beat the A’s

  • The Athletics have lost nine of their last 10 road games against NL West opponents.
  • The Giants have won each of their last five games at Oracle Park.
  • The Athletics have failed to cover the run line in seven of their last eight games against National League opponents that held a losing record.
  • The home team has covered the run line in each of the last three games between the Athletics and Giants.

San Francisco Giants vs Oakland Athletics Prediction

The Giants are going to find success here. Robbie Ray dominated his first Game against the Dodgers, and it’s going to be no different in this Game. The Athletics are averaging 4.16 runs per Game, and they are going to really struggle to get the offense going here. The Giants are going to score at least five runs against JP Sears, and San Francisco is going to cruise here. Back the Giants on the run line to cash.
