Giants seek to deal Diamondbacks fifth straight loss

Baseball Betting Lines

05/28/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Francisco Giants got their nine-game homestand off to a good start, but could experience some trouble tonight with struggling starter Matt Cain on the hill for the opener of a three-games series versus the Arizona Diamondbacks at AT&T Park.

The Giants, who took two of three from Washington to begin the residency, will send Cain to the mound with hopes of the burly right-hander ending a personal three-start losing streak. Cain has a decent 3.05 earned run average during the slide, but run support has been scarce. In last Saturday's 1-0 loss at Oakland, Cain was the hard-luck loser after allowing one unearned run in eight innings of work. He gave up two runs in six innings in his previous start, a 3-1 setback at San Diego on May 17.

Cain will try to work his way over the .500 mark against Arizona, as he sports a 4-4 mark and a 3.86 ERA in 14 career matchups in this series.

San Francisco posted a 5-4 win over the Nationals on Thursday, thanks to Aubrey Huff, who ended 3-for-4 with a home run. Freddy Sanchez drove in a pair of runs and both Juan Uribe and Nate Schierholtz had RBI hits in the win.

Barry Zito did not figure in the decision after working 6 1/3 innings, allowing four runs -- three earned -- on seven hits. The left-hander walked five batters and fanned three. Santiago Casilla (1-0) picked up the win for retiring the last two hitters in the seventh, while Brian Wilson locked the game down in the ninth to register his 12th save of the season.

The Giants will also host Colorado for three games on the residency.

Arizona will resume its 12-game tour against NL West foes tonight and was just swept in three games by the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field to open a nine-game road trip. The Diamondbacks have lost four in a row overall and suffered an 8-2 loss to Colorado on Thursday, as staff ace Dan Haren continued to struggle and allowed all eight runs on 10 hits in 6 1/3 innings.

"I am having trouble keeping the ball in the yard and it's obviously frustrating," said Haren. "I've never dealt with anything like this."

Chris Young and Chris Snyder both knocked in a run for the D'Backs, who will also visit Los Angeles before hosting the Rockies back at Chase Field. Justin Upton went 0-for-4 and entered the game with hits in 17 of his past 23 games this month, along with a .311 batting average.

Since losing four straight starts, Edwin Jackson has won back-to-back trips to the mound and will take the ball for Arizona tonight. Jackson beat Florida on May 17 with eight shutout innings, then squeezed past Toronto last Saturday in an 8-5 win in Phoenix. Jackson was reached for five runs and six hits over 7 2/3 frames to improve to 3-5 in 10 season starts and lower his ERA to 6.28.

The right-hander is 1-0 in two career appearances (one start) against San Francisco.

Arizona swept a two-game series versus San Francisco from May 19-20 at Chase Field, but the Giants have won seven of the past 11 meetings between the teams.
