San Francisco Giants vs Houston Astros
This sports betting tip was written by r3ds on July 3rd, 2009 at 22:19
The Astros have slowly crawled their way back into the mix after winning six of their last eight games to set up an intriguing series with the Giants who shared a series split at St Louis recently.The Giants won the first two games at the Cardinals but a fightback by their opponents saw them both win two games a piece. Even not gaining any games on the series at St Louis, the Giants are still in a decent position in the division and at the moment, it still looks rosy for them.
The astros are a very hard team to guess because they really do disappoint you at times such as the Blue Jays, Indians, Athletics etc. When they are bad, they really are bad. Early indications in the game will be more than enough for a neutral party to call the outcome of the game. Sadowski got off a winning start for the Giants and the young rookie certainly lived up to his hype by pitching six solid shut out innings against Milwaukee. As for the Astros, Paulino 2-4 will take the mound, coming off a very impressive outing against Detroit, whereby he allowed only one earned run over seven complete innings to earn his first win in weeks. Go for the Giants here as I really do anticipate the Astros to run into early trouble.
It will be a close game pitting two very young sides against each other but the Giants should just nick it by a couple of runs.
