3* MLB POD Goes Late - #Giants vs. #Pirates

Giants -125 3* MLB POD
The Pirates have shown signs of fading a bit, while the Giants offense continues to fail. Giants however do catch a break facing Jeff Locke who is really starting to struggle at this point in the season posting a 2.31 WHIP over his last 5 combined starts. Locke was lucky for most of the to begin with and now his control problems are catching up to him. He's walked 17 guys in his last 5 starts and is walking well over 4 guys per 9. Giants send their ace in Matt Cain to the mound who is on the other hand of luck. Earlier int he year he had nothing but bad luck, but over his last 10 starts he's given up 3 runs or less 9 times and posts a 2.25 ERA over his last 5. Over his last 5 starts vs. the Pirates he has been flat out dominating with a 1.24 ERA going back to 2009. Pirates have a .162 collective average and a .477 OPS in 130 AB. He's got 2 complete game shut outs in that period and I think he's set up well to have another great game.
