Oakland Over (6') for 2 Units
Very low scoring series history gives us "over" value with 2 starting pitchers that have not been efficient with their pitches as of late. Oakland's Gio Gonzalez walked a combined 7 over his last few road starts and averaged around 20 pitches per inning over his last 3 road starts. SF is batting a healthy .326 vs lefties at home and should give him trouble;moreover,Gonzalez is 6-1 O/U on 4 days rest. On the other hand, Tim Lincecum is having trouble getting back into CY Young Award winning form; after all, he has allowed 17 ER over his last 22 1/3 innings of work. And the once dominant SF bullpen is now giving up runs (4.15 ERA last 10). With Oakland batting a healthy .326 vs righties this month, we'll look fro the "over" to hit.
