San Francisco Giants are just 3-6 in their last 9 road games and have dropped nine of 15 contests against Los Angeles Dodgers this year and four of the last six in Los Angeles.
San Francisco will send Jonathan Sanchez to the hill. The lefthander is 0-4 with a 5.86 ERA in seven career starts against Los Angeles, 0-2 in two starts at Dodger Stadium. The Giants have lost 17 of Sanchez’s last 21 road starts and the southpaw’s last 6 starts versus the Dodgers. Los Angeles counters with Vicente Padilla (3-0, 2.01 ERA) The right-hander beat the Giants and Sanchez last week, surrendering just one run and three hits over six innings of a 9-1 victory at AT&T Park. Los Angeles has won Padilla’s last 4 starts.

Go with the Dodgers with Padilla at the controls tonight at Dodger Stadium.

Los Angeles Dodgers -150

Bobby Maxwell Friday's winner... 200-Unit WAC E-Z Winner - BOISE STATE

Boise State is on a mission to get back to a BCS bowl game and I don't see Fresno State getting in the way of that tonight. The Broncos are definitely the play, so go ahead and lay the chalk.

The Broncos opened the season with a 19-8 home win over the Pac-10's Oregon squad, cashing as a 3.5-point home favorite. Then on Saturday they killed Miami of Ohio 48-0 as a 38.5-point favorite. So they showed there was no letdown after beating the team from the bigger conference. There won't be a letdown all season for these kids. They are well coached and definitely focused on the bigger picture of getting to a BCS game.

Boise State has won three straight and eight of nine against Fresno State, covering in seven of the last eight matchups. The favorite is on a 7-0 ATS run in this series and look for Boise to make it eight straight when the final gun sounds on this one.

QB Kellen Moore is more than getting it done for the Broncos, throwing for 504 yards, five TDs and just one INT. He's managing the game much better this year and you can see that he is the leader of the offense. He's also got a very nice, young, speedy target at WR in Titus Young who had 114 yards receiving and two TDs against Miami on Saturday.

Fresno State lost a heartbreaker in Wisconsin on Saturday, falling 34-31 in double-overtime. The Bulldogs looked great in the first half, up 21-7 and getting three TD passes from QB Ryan Colburn. Then in the second half Colburn threw three INTs and they looked completely lost. Colburn is too much of a crap-shoot and has the ability to make the big play or the bone-head play.

Boise State is on ATS runs of 5-0 overall, 5-1 on the road, 4-1 in September and 4-1-1 in WAC action. Meanwhile Fresno is a disaster at the betting window, going 11-30 ATS overall, 5-16 ATS at home and 6-20 ATS in WAC games.

I love Boise in this one. Lay the chalk and play the Broncos on the road as this one ends up 35-24.

Glenn McGrew's NATIONAL LEAGUE GAME of the YEAR! - FRIDAY

At 10:10pm, my NL GOY call is on the LA Dodgers. The Los Angeles Dodgers, in firm control of the NL West, 11 games in front second-place Colorado, plays host to the San Francisco Giants on Friday night. LA has manhandled it's division rival this year, taking 9 of 15 in the season-series, outscoring San Francisco 86-52. Vincente Padilla (11-6, 4.42), an excellent pick up from the Texas Rangers, will start the series opener. The 32-year old righthander has had four starts in Dodger blue, going 3-0 with a minuscule 2.01 ERA, with his last start being a brilliant 9-1 win over these same Giants, as he allowed just 3 hits and 1 earned run in six dominating innings of work. San Francisco, just 3-5 over their last eight games, has now fallen three and one half games back of Colorado in the NL wild card race. Their choice to start game one of this three-game series will be Jonathan Sanchez (6-12, 4.16). While Sanchez has decent numbers vs most National League teams, he continued to struggle against the Dodgers last Saturday, allowing five runs in 4 1/3 innings in a 9-1 Giants defeat. That setback moved his record to a dismal 0-4 with a 5.86 ERA in seven career starts against Los Angeles, including 0-2, 9.00 in two starts at Dodger Stadium! Edges abound everywhere in this matchup, with the hosts owning the better starter, the better bullpen, the better offense and momentum. Play LA And, as always, Good Luck.....Glenn McGrew

Bosie State at Fresno State
Play: Boise State -7

4 years ago I would be all over Pat Hills team as a home dog..but off a loss last week where they blew a huge lead to a mediocre Wisconsin team, I have no faith in the once vaunted Bulldog defense against a well coach, highly polished Bronco attack on offense. Broncos defense allowing just 4 ppg! Already defeated Pac 10 so called power Oregon on blue carpet on national TV. Bosie clearly the best team in the WAC. 61-10 last year and have beaten the Bulldogs by an averagwe of 24 ppg the last 7 years....FSU has not made up 51 points worth of ground since last year.....I sniff a double digit win here by Boise. This really is their toughest game left..maybe Tulsa....but no doubt they will be focused.

Boise St at Fresno St
Pick: Fresno St +7.5

Fresno State is coming off a very tough road loss to the Wisconsin Badgers. A game they had until the end and should have won. They don"t get any time to lick their wounds, as the Boise State Broncos come calling. This is a huge conference opener for both teams and should determine who will eventually wind up as the WAC champion. Boise State has won this series over the years, but these games at Fresn are almost always close and determined late in the game. If the Bulldogs can keep the mistakes down . . . . . they could upset the Broncos here.

8 Unit Pick GOY #908 Take Atlanta (-1.05) over Philadelphia (Sept. 18, 7:35)

I have said a couple times in late August here at Docs that if a team in the national league east would catch the Phillies it would be the Braves not the Marlins. Well that isn’t going to happen but as we look up at the standings we see Atlanta on a seven game winning streak and now 4.5 games behind the Rockies for the wild card. Big time series for Atlanta this weekend and in the first game we get to face J.A Happ what I think is at the right time. Happ has missed his last two starts after straining his intercostal muscle on September 7th. Before that Happ was in a grove and in my opinion pitching over his head. He could have been hurt in his start vs. the Giants on Sept. 2nd where he gave up four runs in six innings but regardless it is tough to go back out on the mound and try to get back that momentum. The Braves will send Tim Hudson to the bump making his fourth start back from Tommy john surgery, he was good in his first two but struggle in bit in his last start at St. Louis where the Braves did win. This Braves team is hot and has scored six runs or more in six of their last seven wins and I think they will hit Hap tonight. Pleas note to list the starting pitchers in cause Happ is scratched
