Texas Rangers vs San Francisco Giants Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 04/27/25

The Texas Rangers are set to close out a 6-game west coast road trip on Sunday when they face the San Francisco Giants at Oracle Park. These teams have split the first 2 games of this series, as the Rangers won 2-0 on Friday night and the Giants won 3-2 on Saturday thanks to a walk-off single from Patrick Bailey in the bottom of the 9th. Jack Leiter is slated to take the ball for the visitors. Leiter allowed just 1 earned run over his first 2 starts of the season, but he was placed on the 15-day IL with a blister issue on his right middle finger after his start on April 2. He is making his return to the rotation in this one, and he will be facing a San Francisco lineup that ranks seventh in total runs.

San Francisco will send Jordan Hicks to the mound, and his transition to starting pitcher has been a tough one. Hicks owns a 6.59 ERA and 1.54 WHIP through 5 starts this season. He has also struggled to find the strike zone recently, issuing 10 free passes over his last 3 starts. Texas ranks near the bottom of the league in terms of runs per game, but Hicks could present a good matchup for the Rangers. His starts tend to be high-scoring, as an average of 10.8 runs per game have been scored in Hicks’ 5 starts this season. Look to the over.
