3* NLCS Game 5 SMASH on Giants +147
I'll gladly get behind the Giants at this price in this do-or-die spot with Barry Zito on the hill.

The Giants are an unbelievable 12-0 in Zito's last 12 starts as the veteran southpaw has rediscovered the form that helped him capture the 2002 AL Cy Young. He has held the opposition to 3 runs or fewer in each of his last six starts.

It is also worth noting that the Giants are 6-0 in Zito's last 6 road starts and 7-0 in his last 7 starts as an underdog.

The Giants have been great on the road all season and check into this contest on a 25-11 run away from home. They are also 13-5 in their last 18 games as an underdog.

We saw San Francisco battle back from a 0-2 hole in the NLDS with three straight road wins against Cincinnati. It's not going down without a fight. Take the Giants.
