Giants vs Rockies Prediction
I’m on the Giants here. I tried giving the Rockies the benefit of the doubt in the first two games of this series, and that didn’t end well. Now the Giants get their ace on the mound in a matchup he’s excelled in almost his entire career. I just think Colorado’s ready for this to be over. Give me the Giants.
