after taking game two, the Giants will look to secure the series with a win over the Rangers. Taking the ball for San Fran will be Derek Holland who comes in with a 2.81 era over his L16 IP on 17 Ks, 6 BBs and 0 HRs. After back to back road starts, the HR drought against Dutch should continue as he has allowed just 4 HRs at home over 56 IP. In 31 IP this season, Holland has posted a .178 BA against LHH with 0 HRs allowed. That is a positive sign against a Rangers lineup that will feature a lefty heavy lineup, starting with Choo and Odor as well as an underexposed 40 ABs. Holland improves during the day where he sees his era drop to 2.84 to match a 4-1 record. The Rangers will hand the ball to Yovani Gallardo who comes in with a 4.70 era over his L15 IP on 9 Ks, 7 BBs and 2 HRs. With all three starts coming at home, we will fade Gallardo and his 7.66 road era in this afternoon affair. In 30 IP this season, Gallardo has posted a .320 BA against RHH with 5 HRs. With a comfortable 148 ABs against Gallardo from this Giants lineup to match a .304 BA and 3 HRs, this is the spot to fade Yo and his 4.45 day time era. Giants currently taking 32% of the action with line movement from -140 to -160.
