The Athletics host the San Francisco Giants in the rubber match of their three-game set on Sunday night in Sacramento.
While San Francisco is the better team, my Giants vs. Athletics prediction targets the home squad in the best MLB picks on Sunday, July 6.
Giants vs A's prediction
My Giants vs A's best bet: Athletics moneyline (-120 at Caesars)
A quick glance at these teams' records (Giants 48-42, Athletics 37-54) might lead some people to take the road underdogs on Sunday night, but a deeper look has me going the other way.
On the mound, the San Francisco Giants have lost Hayden Birdsong’s last four starts, with the righthander allowing 17 ER in 18 1/3 IP in that span.
On the flip side, southpaw Jacob Lopez has helped the Athletics to victory in five straight starts after dropping his first seven outings. He’s allowed just six runs (four earned) in 26 1/3 in his last five games.
The Giants have also struggled against left-handed starters this season. They’re 8-15 vs. LHP as opposed to 40-27 vs. RHP.
Caesars QuickPick: Our Giants vs A's same-game parlay (SGP)
The Over has hit in each of the last five starts for Birdsong and two of the last three for Lopez despite his success. There have already been 22 runs scored through two games in this series, and the ball has been flying at Sutter Health Park this season.
Matt Chapman is still plugging away in his age-32 season. He’s only batting .245 on the year, but he returned from injury to extend his hitting streak to eight games on Saturday. The veteran has 2+ total bases in seven of those games and 10 of his last 18 overall.
