Cincinnati Reds at San Francisco Giants\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Cincinnati Reds SP Johnny Cueto has been incredible in the month of June during the 2012 MLB season<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cincinnati had to settle with a 3-3 homestand after dropping an 8-4 decision to the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday afternoon, as the club now heads out on an 11-day West Coast road trip.\u00a0 \u201cWe have to regroup on the coast,\u201d stated Reds manager Dusty Baker.\u00a0 The Reds can only hope that second baseman Brandon Phillips manage to avoid a concussion after getting knocked in the head Wednesday, as he\u2019s batting .359 with four home runs and 15 RBI in his last 16 games.\u00a0 Cincinnati is 4-6 as a road underdog of +100 to +125, while the \u201cunder\u201d is 6-4 in that situation.<\/p>\n

Reds starting pitcher Johnny Cueto (9-3, 2.21 ERA) has won all four of his starts this month, including a 6-0 home win over the Minnesota Twins last time out, giving up just three hits over seven shutout innings.\u00a0 The right-hander is 4-2 with a 2.15 ERA in eight road outings, surrendering three round trippers in 54.1 combined frames.\u00a0 In three career outings versus the Giants, Cueto has garnered a perfect 2-0 record and 1.64 ERA.<\/p>\n

San Francisco has moved into a first-place tie with the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West division, with the club winning five of its last six games.\u00a0 The Giants managed to hold the Dodgers scoreless for three consecutive games for the first time in club history.\u00a0 It\u2019s important to note that the club is one of the hottest in baseball in terms of playing in front of its fans, posting a 24-14 overall record at AT&T Park.\u00a0 San Francisco is 10-2 as a home favorite of -125 to -150 this season, while the \u201cunder\u201d is 9-2 in those contests.<\/p>\n

Giants starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner (9-4, 3.10 ERA) has won his last four decisions, including a 9-8 road victory over the Oakland Athletics last time out, allowing four runs and 11 hits over six frames.\u00a0 The left-hander is 5-1 with a 2.27 ERA in six home outings, issuing just three walks and striking out 39 in 43.2 combined innings.\u00a0 In three career outings versus the Reds, Bumgarner has registered an 0-2 record and 8.56 ERA.<\/p>\n

Bettors will likely back the Reds due to their 21-7 record in Cueto\u2019s last 28 starts, while the Giants are 1-5 in Bumgarner\u2019s last six efforts against winning teams.<\/p>\n
