The Diamondbacks feel good about themselves with three wins in their last four outings, most recently defeating the Washington Nationals 5-3 on Thursday.

Diamondbacks vs Giants Prediction & Pick

The Diamondbacks need a miraculous performance out of starting pitcher Zach Davies if they hope to win tonight. The 30-year-old veteran has been awful this season, going 1-3 with a 7.11 ERA in seven starts. His last outing was one of the worst of the year, giving up nine runs on as many hits over just 3 2/3 innings in a 12-3 loss to the Cleveland Guardians.

Fortunately for the Giants, Logan Webb has been his usual reliable self on the mound. The former 2014 fourth-rounder has pitched to a 3.11 ERA and 1.108 WHIP while averaging 8.8 strikeouts per nine innings in 15 starts thus far. He also only surrendered one run on three hits with a trio of walks over seven innings when he last faced the D-Backs (May 14).

Having lost 16 of their previous 20 trips to Oracle Park, I don't like the Diamondbacks' chances of victory. The Giants just went on a 10-game heater, after all, so look for a bounce-back showing from the home team.

Final Score Prediction: Giants: 5 | Diamondbacks: 2

Diamondbacks vs Giants Best Bet

When it comes to the best bet, let's take the Giants scoring over 4.5 runs at -106 odds. Before Thursday's loss, San Francisco scored an average of 8.0 runs during their 10-game winning streak, finishing with more the Over on this prop seven times.

Additionally, opposing teams have scored a combined 27 runs in Davies' last two starts. With how poor the Diamondbacks starter has been performing, runs will come easy for the Giants tonight.

Bet: Giants to Score Over 4.5 Runs (-106)
