The Chicago White Sox can cap off a three-game interleague series sweep against the San Francisco Giants on Sunday afternoon.

The Sox won the opening game by a final score of 1-0, and then followed it up with another win on Saturday, beating San Francisco 5-3. Today's showdown will be the final one of their California road trip, before returning home to take on the Twins on Monday.

Lucas Giolito (5.19 ERA) will get the start for Chicago. He'll take on Giants' starter, John Brebbia.

White Sox vs. Giants Prediction and Pick

I'm all about the OVER in this Independence Day-Eve game.

The wind is supposed to be blowing out of Oracle Park at a speed of 12 mph, which is a huge boost to the over. Furthermore, I don't trust Lucas Giolito to keep the Giants' bats at bay. He's having one of the the worst seasons of his career, sporting a 5.19 ERA and a 1.529 WHIP. He's allowed at least four runs in three of his last four starts, including allowing eight runs against the Astros on June 17.

Meanwhile, Chicago's bats are starting to come alive, ranking in the top half of the Majors in OPS since the start of June.

I'm going to sit back and root for runs in this interleague series finale.

Pick: OVER 8.5 (+100)
