*3 Star Giants/Reds Game 5 Winner* The Cincinnati Reds took the first two games in San Francisco easily, but the Giants have bounced back to win two straight in Cincinnati. It all comes to a deciding Game Five in Cincinnati Thursday afternoon. Mat Latos will be on the hill for the Reds against Matt Cain for the Giants. Cain is definitely one of the best pitchers in baseball, and I don't normally like going against him. However, this is a price that I believe is a solid value. Several Reds hitters have had success against Cain in the past. Ludwick, Bruce, and Votto have all hit Cain well. Mat Latos has a stellar 2.19 ERA in his career against the Giants. Latos has an ERA under 1 in his last three starts. The Reds have the better lineup from top to bottom, and they have the best bullpen in baseball. The Giants are 2-7 in Cain's last 9 against the Reds. The Reds are 15-3 in Latos' last 18 home starts. Take the Reds.
