Colorado Rockies vs. San Francisco Giants The MLB pick for this game is the San Francisco Giants, but the play here is OVER. San Francisco will benefit from playing at home because it has recently played better than Colorado. San Francisco outperforms the Rockies despite the Giants losing four of their past five games overall. For a very long time, Colorado has been mired in misery and near the bottom of the National League West. The Rockies will still have problems here, mainly if they send a subpar starting pitcher. The anticipated outcome is a San Francisco Giants victory with a score of 7-3.
