Sunday Gravy Play

San Francisco (20-15) opened the year with three straight wins in Houston, outscoring the Astros 18-6. It's been a similar story this weekend in California, with the Giants limiting Houston to three total runs while winning the first two games. San Francisco hasn't swept two series from the Astros (13-23) in a single season since 2000.

Zito is 5-1, 1.90 ERA. The 2002 AL Cy Young winner made his season debut against the Astros on April 6, and gave up three hits and a walk in six innings of a 3-0 victory -- an outing that set the tone for the first 5-0 start of his career. Now, he'll try for a win against a Houston team that is batting .194 through the first five meetings of the season series.

Myers made his season debut against San Francisco on April 7, giving up four runs and 12 hits in six innings but not receiving a decision in Houston's 10-4 loss. He is 1-3 with a 7.20 ERA in six starts versus the Giants.

Taking the Giants (-160)

Good Luck!

Wednesday Bases

Now 13-12 (-049) on the season.

Barry Zito is on his longest winning streak since a six-game run in 2006.
Zito has posted a 0.68 ERA while winning his last four starts against the Marlins (13-13). Two of those came last season, including a 2-1 victory in Florida on June 5.

Meanwhile, Marlins left-hander Nate Robertson (2-2, 5.18) ended April with a pair of losses. He gave up five runs, five hits and four walks over four innings in each outing.

I'll give the nod to the Giants at (-131)

Good Luck!
