The Diamondbacks continue to be hit or miss offensively and this has the makings of a low scoring game. Merrill Kelly has been sharp through 24.2 innings, allowing 17 hits and 6 runs while striking out 21. Kelly is holding current Giants to a .201 batting average with 26 strikeouts in 144 at bats. Jordan Hicks has allowed 15 hits and 4 earned runs through 23 innings while striking out 18. I’ll lean toward the under in this spot.
