This has been a zig-zag series in which each team has alternated wins. I look for that trend to continue in Thursday’s Game 5 with all being considered. The Giants Logan Webb has pitched brilliantly at home this season. Webb has gone 13-0 in his home team starts while compiling a terrific 1.83 ERA and 0.94 WHIP in doing so. Webb has made 4 starts versus the Dodgers in 2012 and collected an impressive 1.52 ERA which includes 7 2/3 of scoreless innings pitched in Game 1 of this NLDS.

The Giants went over the total in Tuesday’s 7-2 loss. Why is that significant? Well, I am glad you asked. San Francisco is 5-0 in their last 5 following an under during its previous game and allowed just a combined 2 runs. As a matter of fact, the last 4 times this situation has arisen the Giants have held opposing teams scoreless. Additionally, Webb is 11-1 in his teams starts this season after allowing 1 earned run or less in his previous start, and the Giants outscored those opponents by an average of 3.8 runs per game. Webb has allowed an average of just 0.33 home runs per start this season. Conversely, the Dodgers are a dismal 9-17 in 2021 when facing starting pitchers who allow 0.50 or fewer home runs per start. Bet the Giants for a Top Play money line wager.
