AAA's 10* SITUATIONAL PITCHING MISMATCH!
(MLB) LA Dodgers vs. San Francisco,
Money Line: -135.00 LA Dodgers (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* SITUATIONAL PITCHING MISMATCH on the LA Dodgers.

I think we're getting pretty good value on Clayton Kershaw in this match-up. Both of these veteran pitchers have gotten out to uncharacteristically slow starts to the season, Kershaw is 1-1 with a 4.42 ERA, but most recently would give up three runs, while striking out 12 and walking one in his team's 7-3 win over the Rockies on Friday. If history is any precdence though, then Kershaw and the Dodgers have to be loving their chances today as the southpaw has won three straight in San Francisco and is 8-2 with an almost non-existent 0.84 ERA in 11 overall. Note that Kershaw was 3-0 with a 1.69 ERA in four overall starts vs. the Giants last year. Madison Bumgarner was the hero of last year's postseason, but he would give up four runs over seven innings in a 7-6, 12 inning loss to Arizona on Thursday. I think Bumgarner will have his hands full today vs. the revenge minded Dodgers line-up which had its seven-game win streak snapped in Tuesday's 6-2 series opening loss (note though that LA had averaged 6.3 runs over the seven game win skein). I'm giving Kershaw the slight nod on the bump and the Dodgers the slight nod at the plate and that's more than enough to tip the scales in favor of the visitiors, fantastic line value on LOS ANGELES.
