(MLB) Philadelphia vs. San Francisco, 06/18/2021 9:45 PM, Score: 3 - 5
Money Line: -123.00 San Francisco (Home)
Result: Win
It's past time to give the Giants their due. San Francisco is 44-25, which is the best record in baseball. The Phillies are 12-25 on the road this year.

The pitching matchup is Vince Velasquez, who has a 4.25 ERA, versus Johnny Cueto, who has a 4.00 ERA. Velasquez has a 12.9 percent walk rate. Cueto's walk rate is 4.8 percent. 

The price is fair. So I'm going to ride the Giants. 

San Francisco has been tremendous in this role winning 25 of the last 31 times it has been home chalk. The Phillies have lost 16 of the last 21 times playing in San Francisco.

The Phillies have scored just six runs in their last three games. They are likely to get Bryce Harper back, but are down two key mid-infielders with Jean Segura joining Didi Gregorius on IL.
