Arizona has lost 15 of the last 18 games by more than one run, and 9 straight games overall.
The Angels are playing better, the only thing that has me somewhat less confident is the fact they can't seem to win behind Escobar, losing 7 straight starts behind Kelvim, even though Escobar has pitched very well, allowing just 2 runs his in each of past four starts and a very solid road era of 2.75 on the season.
Arizona's Batista has dropped 3 straight games by more than one run, and his home ERA is 5.85, and allowing 16 ER his last 15.1 innings...simply put the D Backs are not the same team since the steroid scandal.
Anaheim -1.5 +125 300/375
