00:00let's go to san francisco oracle park tonight between the giants and the dodgers as we talked

00:06about with colby marcio he loves shohei otani today but a difficult challenge in the opposition

00:11drs in logan wem getting the nod for san francisco the giants a minus 130 home money line favorite

00:18total seven and a half divisional duel rivalry renewed between the dodgers and the giants how

00:24does it begin on this friday like i think you're getting the dodgers at the right time because

00:28most people say i don't care who's pitching i don't care who's in the lineup i'm just going to

00:31take the dodgers at a plus 108 i'm not going to do that like by far logan webb is the better pitcher

00:35on the mound today than against dustin may you take a look at logan webb's last 60 days a 2.63 era

00:41a 2.64 xfip number and an xfip minus of 66 if nothing should have spectacular and if it wasn't

00:47for terrick scuba on the mound today he would be the best pitcher and that also includes paul skeins

00:51on the roster today to be throwing some pitches but dustin may does struggle with lefties are there

00:56going to be a ton of lefties in the lineup for san francisco tonight not necessarily got one two

01:00three four maybe five with a switch hitter and patrick bailey who's not that great of a hitter

01:05anyway but for me it just comes down to if i'm looking at this environment tonight and saying

01:09i'm just going to go toe to toe with these two starting pitchers i'm going to lead on san francisco

01:13might be different if la is coming in winners of seven of eight games and back on strike but i do think

01:17like shoyotani does have good numbers against right-handed pitching but this is a different right-handed

01:21pitcher it's logan webb i trust logan webb to get the job done tonight in a lower scoring

01:26game i'll take san francisco as a favorite over the dodgers the dodgers have lost six straight they

01:32were swept at home at the ravine in a marquee weekend set a week ago by the astros and then

01:38they were swept in milwaukee by the brew crew this week they're trying to snap that slide and get back

01:44in a better form entering the all-star break all that being said drs 56 and 38 the dodgers still by a

01:51half game in front of the cubs the best record of the national league and the dodgers maintain a five

01:56game advantage atop their division in front of those giants the dodgers only booked as a dog

02:0213 games this year tonight number 14 they are six and seven straight up in those previous 13 you know

02:09what's crazy about a team that is 12 games below 500 in the atlanta braves they've only been an

02:15underdog 18 times this year they are four and 14 though as a dog and tonight there's still a road

02:22favorite under the arch in saint louis minus 120 gavin holmes gets the start donnie's favorite

02:29pitcher the big lib matthew libertor on the other side saint louis now a slight underdog over under

02:36is nine final weekend set for both teams before the all-star break atlanta is craving it before they

02:43welcome everybody to the a how does it begin on this friday night in the loo paid late last night

02:49now you gotta jump on a plane you're not playing good baseball you see the the finish line of the

02:53first half of the season it's not going well for atlanta you're just hobbling to get into it meanwhile

02:57you have saint louis saying we've still got a lot to fight for 85 degree temperatures of wind blowing

03:02out to left field you love to see that matthew libertor is a decent pitcher but also what are we

03:07getting on a night-to-night basis out of that atlanta braves lineup like okay like a coon you're like

03:11matt olsen i get it but also understand this the other side you do have a decent pitcher on the

03:15amount of grand homes this last 60 days ben 2.73 era he should keep you in this but if there's one

03:20player i'd like to make it's alec burleson to record an rbi tonight excellent numbers against right

03:25into pitching and if homes does struggle anywhere it's actually against left-handed batters so burleson

03:31for an rbi tonight for me
