Chris’ Pick

I’m sticking with the Giants here. They’ve been heads and shoulders the better team in this matchup and they’ve flat out owned the Rockies over the course of the season. I don’t strictly back teams because they need wins, but the Giants need another strong showing here for their confidence and to keep themselves in the Wild Card race. The Rockies are just not an option for me at this point. Give me the Giants here.
