The Dodgers are a team that has been playing really well on the year. However, the Dodgers are a team that has really had some road issues at times on the year, but still are playing over the five hundred mark and even with the rivalry of the Giants, the Dodgers have a chance of playing a strong game here and that is what they do as the Giants have not announced a starter and have had some problems slowing down the Dodgers offense, like it will in this game here. Final Score Prediction, Los Angeles Dodgers win 6-1.
