San Francisco Giants vs. Cincinnati Reds Prediction
I’m on the Giants in this one. I get the case to be made for Cincinnati as Great American Ballpark can be an equalizer for the Reds’ bats. That being said I’m not the biggest fan of this Reds lineup against left-handed pitching and I think that the Giants’ bats get to Singer and get the win. Give me San Francisco.
