The San Francisco Giants have not lost a game in which Barry Zito has started since August 02, 2012 which covers a span of 13 games. In those games the San Francisco Giants have averaged 6.15 RRP. Barry Zito also receives pretty good run support from his team, 4.69 runs per 9 innings during the regular season and 6.50 runs per 9 innings during the post season this year. Tonights umpire, Gerry Davis is known for having one of the tightest strikezones in the National league and the average runs per 9 innings with him behind the plate is 8.8
The plan for the Giants tonight is if Zito gets in early trouble we might see a early call to the bullpen to Timmy Lincecum. Well, that may not be good either as the Tigers offense ranks 2nd in MLB against right handed pitching. Add to that the Giants have the 10th ranked offense in the league against right handed pitching.
Last but not least, your over wager may be protected by Barry Zito, if he comes out and has a sub par performance, which he is know for occasionally, the Tigers could cover more than half of this total on their own. This total also provides us with a winner if for some reason we are looking at a 3-3 tie late in the game. Someone has to win the game right?
This total is a little to low with a rusty Verlander and a unreliable Zito on the bump tonight.
Good luck with whatever you decide. I will have action on the over 6.5 tonight.
