Zimmerman concluded the year for the Nats with a no-hitter, finishing with a record of 14-5 with a 2.66 ERA. Tim Hudson, starting pitcher for the Giants, has had a less than stellar year going 9-13.
The Nationals are a -200 favorite. Their backs are against the wall and they are at home. Sounds like a no brainer to take Washington, right?
Well, The Giants' starter, Tim Hudson has OWNED the Nationals the past 2 years. in 2014, Hudson was 2-0 vs Washington, 11.1 IP and only 1 ER (0.81 ERA). In 2013, Hudson went 1-0 in 2 starts, 14.1 IP and again, only 1 ER (0.63 ERA)
That's a grand total of 3-0 with a 0.70 ERA the past 2 years. I'm taking my shot with this guy getting +180
Giants +180
Zimmerman has also done well against the Giants going 2-1 with a 1.86 ERA
With the way the Nats hit with RISP last night, runs could be at a premium again
WASH/SF UNDER 7 (+100)
playoff record 3-3 +40
