The Giants’ biggest strength is their ability to put the ball in play. They lead Arizona in batting average, hits, and slugging percentage. Those offensive advantages have helped keep them competitive even though they have struggled to turn those opportunities into wins consistently.

Arizona recently lost back-to-back games to Tampa Bay after previously winning two straight over St. Louis before dropping another close game in that series.

Combined with the stronger numbers from the projected starting pitcher, those statistics provide a solid foundation entering this game.
San Francisco Giants vs Arizona Diamondbacks Picks and Prediction
San Francisco Giants vs Arizona Diamondbacks Pick
- Pick: Arizona Diamondbacks Moneyline
Arizona is my selection for this matchup. The Diamondbacks own the better overall record, the stronger home record, and have a clear edge in the projected starting-pitching matchup. Eduardo Rodriguez has posted outstanding numbers this season, and Arizona also has the lower team ERA and WHIP. While San Francisco has been slightly better offensively in several categories, the Diamondbacks’ advantage on the mound makes them my preferred side.
San Francisco Giants vs Arizona Diamondbacks Total Pick
- Pick: Under 8.5
I would take the under if the total is set at 8.5. Arizona’s projected starter enters with a 2.27 ERA, and the Diamondbacks have the better overall team ERA and WHIP in this matchup. Neither offense has reached 350 runs this season, and I expect the stronger pitching numbers to keep scoring in check.
Final Score Prediction: Arizona Diamondbacks 5 – San Francisco Giants 3
