-105 Dodgers @ Giants -115

Your thoughts on this game? The public is obviously pounding the Giants in this one, but wait a second, Kershaw is pitching against Zito?

Yeah, Zito seems to have Ethier and Loney under control, so if those two are shut down, where would the offense come from?

I hate trusting Zito & love Kershaw, but the Dodgers screw me all the time. I really am not sure what to do in this matchup.

Tough call, in games like these I would usually go with the home team, seems like a safer bet.

Zito hard to support until he shows some command.

Why bet the game at all if it seems tough to call?

Aren't most games tough to call? If it were so easy we would all be rich.

The Giants are 0-6 in Zito's last 6 starts, 0-2 in his last two home starts. Zito has a career ERA of 4.01 against LA. The Dodgers are 2-4 in Kershaw's last 6 starts and have won 1 game in his last 3 road starts. Kershaw is 0-1 in 5 career starts against San Francisco, but has an impressive ERA of 1.93 and a WHIP of 1.04. I think the edge has to go to LA as a small dog tonight.

After a lot of debate, I played the Dodgers last night.
