The San Francisco Giants host the Los Angeles Dodgers in one of those dynamite pitching matchups that only happens a few times in an entire regular season. The Giants (36-25) currently lead the National League West, ahead of the second-place Dodgers (32-29) by four games. The Dodgers lost a 1-0 snoozer to the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday, while the Giants knocked off the Red Sox in a pitcher’s duel, 2-1, on Wednesday.

LA Dodgers at San Francisco Giants MLB Odds Pick & TV Info

When: Friday, June 10, 10:15pm Eastern time Where: AT&T Park, San Francisco TV: MLB Network, NBC Bay Area, SportsNet LA Radio: Los Angeles / San Francisco Live Stream: MLB.tv MLB Odds: TBA Pitching Matchup: Clayton Kershaw (8-1, 1.46 ERA) (LA) vs Johnny Cueto (9-1, 2.16 ERA) (SF)

Why should you bet on Los Angeles?

Despite the fact that Madison Bumgarner has homered off Clayton Kershaw in two of the games they’ve started against each other recently, Kershaw generally dominates the Giants. In his career, he is 17-7 with a 1.60 ERA against San Francisco. In AT&T Park, he is 9-3 with a 1.23 ERA. This year he has started twice against the Giants already, allowing four runs in 17 innings. The only Giant starting position player who has ever gone deep off Kershaw is Buster Posey (2 HR, 73 AB). No Giant is batting higher than .273 against Kershaw for his career.

Why should you put your money on the Giants?

San Francisco has had two scheduled off days this week, giving Cueto six days of rest before this start. This might sound good, but he is actually 4-9 in 34 starts with six or more days of rest in between action. Even so, he has been terrific for the Giants this year, living up to that big contract. Even though he has spent most of his career in the National League, only three Dodger starters have more than 10 career at-bats against Cueto, which should work toward his advantage.

Expert Betting Pick and Final Score Prediction

I like Kershaw to exercise his usual domination over the Giants’ offense…but I also like Cueto to rise to the occasion. I’m predicting a 1-0 San Francisco win.
