6-2 victory over San Francisco as +103 road underdogs Wednesday, while going OVER the betting total of 7.\u00a0 The Nationals are baseball\u2019s hottest team entering this affair\u2014capturing 10 of their last 12 contests.\u00a0 It\u2019s important to point out that the franchise hasn\u2019t earned a sweep in the Bay Area since May 12-14, 2003.\u00a0 Washington is 0-2 as road underdogs of +125 to +150 during the 2014 campaign.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #232323\">Nationals starting pitcher Blake Treinen (0-2, 1.78 ERA) will be making his eighth appearance (fourth start) of the season, as he didn\u2019t earn a decision in a 4-3 setback on the road to the San Diego Padres last time out.\u00a0 The right-hander has received just four runs of offensive supporting during his starting assignments, while the bullpen has compiled a 6.10 ERA in those efforts.\u00a0 Treinen will face the Giants for the first time in his career.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #232323\">San Francisco will look to snap a three-game losing streak, while the OVER has cashed in four of its last five contests.\u00a0 The Giants have held sole possession of the best record in the Majors for the past 19 days\u2014leading directly to the largest lead of any division leader.\u00a0 MLB handicappers should take note that the club has never been swept in a four-game series at this ballpark.\u00a0 San Francisco is 12-1 as home favorites of -150 to -175 this season, with the OVER going 7-6 in that situation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #232323\">Giants starting pitcher Tim Hudson (6-2, 1.97 ERA) is coming off one of his shortest appearances of the season, as he tossed five innings and allowed three runs on a season-high nine hits this past Saturday against the Giants.\u00a0 The right-hander has watched his team win his last 15 home games dating back to his time with the Atlanta Braves during the 2013 campaign.\u00a0 In 29 career games versus the Nationals, Hudson has produced a sparkling 16-5 record and 2.45 ERA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #232323\">Sports bettors will likely back the Giants due to their 12-1 record as home favorites of -150 to -175 this season.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:
