Free MLB Pick

The Dodgers bats have gone ice cold in recent games putting up a meagre two runs in their last three games. That may change tonight when the face Giants’ starter Tim Lincecum who they got to for 4 runs over 4 innings in his last start against them. However that was on the road. He held them to 1 run in 6 innings in their last visit to AT&T Park earlier this season and he’s pitched fantastic at home in 2015 with a scintillating 1.44 ERA in four starts. His career numbers vs. the Dodgers are not great with the current lineup hitting .272 lifetime with a .349 on base percentage. Los Angeles starter Brett Anderson has been very solid in his last three games allowing 3 runs (2 earned) over 16 1/3 innings. On the season he hasn’t been at his best on the road with a 4.20 ERA in three starts. One of those came against the Giants who got to him for 4 runs in 4 innings. Anderson has started against them twice this season one home and one away pitching 8 2/3 innings allowing 7 runs on 14 hits. So it comes as no surprise that his career numbers against San Francisco’s roster is poor with the team hitting .345 with an OPS of .823.
