San Francisco Giants versus San Louis Cardinals MLB NLCS Playoff Game 4 Pick Prediction Money Line and Over Under Las Vegas and Offshore Betting Odds October 18th 2012

Game 4 of the National League Championship Series between the San Francisco Giants (98-72) and the St. Louis Cardinals (94-77) will be played out on Thursday, October 18th at Busch Stadium. The Cardinals have gone 52-32 in their home stadium, while the Giants have amassed a 49-36 record when traveling during the 2012 season. Game 4 starts with a first pitch thrown at 8:00 PM ET and will be broadcast live on FOX.

Embattled right-hander Tim Lincecum (11-15, 1.43 WHIP, 5.00 ERA) looked nothing like the perennial All-Star he was in previous seasons during 2012, and he was actually sent to the bullpen for the postseason. Since then he has been unhittable and has been named the starting pitcher for game 4. That being said, Lincecum has given up 9 earned runs over 11.2 innings pitched over his last 2 starts against St. Louis back when he was pitching well in previous seasons.

The Cardinals are going with right-hander Adam Wainwright (14-13, 1.28 WHIP, 4.09 ERA) tonight, but you have to wonder how he’s feeling after he gave up 6 earned runs over 2.1 innings pitched against the Washington Nationals in the last round of the playoffs. Wainwright has given up 4 or more earned runs in 4 of his last 10 starts but has also given up only 6 earned runs over his last 4 combined starts against the Giants.

St. Louis won 6-1 on the road as a +116 underdog in Game 1 against the Giants, while San Francisco was a 7-1 winner in Game 2. Game 3 saw the Cardinals pick up a 3-1 win as a -118 betting favorite, while Las Vegas has them at -132 for Game 4. The total here sits at 7 runs with 6 of the last 10 head-to-head meetings between these teams going over their respective lines.
