Arizona Diamondbacks vs. San Francisco Giants (8:00 PM ET)
Line: Arizona Diamondbacks vs. San Francisco Giants – view all MLB lines
Madison Bumgarner (9-4, 2.09 ERA) pitched well in his last start, holding Colorado scoreless in six innings while recording six strikeouts, but didn’t get a win no thanks to San Francisco’s bullpen that allowed seven runs in a 7-3 loss at home last Tuesday. Bumgarner tries to get his first July win again later tonight against the visiting D’backs, who will have Archie Bradley on the mound. Bradley (3-4, 4.81 ERA) has struggled in his last two starts, wherein he’s surrendered eight earned runs in 12.0 total innings. The Giants are 7-3 in Bumgarner’s last 10 starts. The over is 3-0 in Bradley’s past three starts.
Writer’s Prediction
Arizona wins, 4-3.
