DIAMONDBACKS/GIANTS Under 8.5 ?115 (Friday) - Rueter is having an excellent season for the Giants, with a 3.19 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP in 174.2 innings. As a team, the Giants are now an outstanding 21-7 in all of Rueter?s starts, with the Under going 16-11-1. He has not slowed down one bit either, as Rueter has allowed just 1 run and 15 hits in 19.1 innings over his last 3 starts. This includes his last start against these D-Backs, when he held Arizona scoreless on just 4 hits in 5.1 innings. Batista must love pitching at Pac Bell, as his last 3 starts here have all been excellent. In his only start here this season, he held the Giants to 0 runs and just 1 hit in 9 innings, getting the hard-luck No-Decision in a game won by the Giants 1-0 in extra innings. The Under is 6-3-1 in Batista?s last 10 starts.
