Marlins at Giants picks and predictions

Prediction

Marlins 4, Giants 3

The Marlins are 10-11 on the road this season but have won 4 of their last 6 road games while the Giants are 14-11 at home and 12-5 in their last 17 home games.

However, as Wood had not gotten out of the 5th inning this season, the Giants will have to rely on their bullpen. Giants relievers have a 5.37 ERA, the 3rd-highest in all of baseball.
