Afternoon MLB

There is afternoon baseball on a Monday? I love it!

I am going to look at both games for today.

Giants Vs Philly

I knew this was going to be a tough game to pick the minute I saw the lines and the starting pitchers. The play without blinking in my eyes is Zito. The phillies do not hit lefties as well as righties and lieber is 0-2 in day games.

Yet I still hesitate to pull the trigger? The Phillies are hitting the ball very well and yesterday it seemed like everyone on the team had a key hit in the come back win and they took a solid pitcher like Linecum and made him look silly.

With that in mind I am going to take the total: Over 9.5 -105

The bullpens for both teams are in a rut and both teams are hitting the ball really well

When SAN FRANCISCO team played as a Road team - During the month of June - Coming off vs. National League opponent - Coming off a 1 run lost - Coming off vs. Right handed pitcher the over is 9-3

Crawford is behind the plate and his numbers this year make him look like he is an under umpire but look at his numbers a bit closer. The over has hit in two straight overall, 3 of his last 4 with the Giants and 7-1 in his last 8 with Philly.

Over is 4-1 in Giants last 5 games following a loss.
Over is 11-4-1 in Giants last 16 games as a favorite.
Over is 22-8-3 in Giants last 33 during game 4 of a series.
Over is 5-2 in Giants last 7 games vs. a right-handed starter
Over is 8-3 in Phillies last 11 overall.
Over is 8-3 in Phillies last 11 on Grass.
Over is 5-2-1 in Phillies last 8 after scoring 5 runs or more in their previous game.
Over is 5-2 in Phillies last 7 games vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30.
Over is 5-1 in Lieber's last 6 Monday starts.
