Before Betting
The San Francisco Giants face off against the Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 2 of this NL West division matchup. San Francisco won Game 1 by a final score of 6-3.
The Giants hit three home runs in the game, including a rare inside-the-park homer by Matt Chapman. Chapman had a two-hit game and drove in three RBIs.
The Giants are 78-79, 6-4 in their last ten games, and have won four in a row. It appears they are trying to finish the season with a winning record.
The Diamondbacks had a 1-0 lead in the first inning but couldn’t keep up with the walks and home runs they allowed. Arizona had some solid hitting at the top of the order, but the rest of the lineup struggled.
The Diamondbacks are 87-70, 5-5 in their last ten games, and have lost two in a row. They are clinging to the third wild card spot, with the Atlanta Braves only a game and a half behind.
The Giants are 5-6 in their head-to-head matchup this season. While San Francisco has slightly better pitching, Arizona is one of the top offensive teams in the league. Game 2 will come down to the aces.
The starting pitcher for the Giants is Logan Webb, who is 12-10 with a 3.58 ERA. This will likely be Webb’s final game of the season, and in his last three starts, he has given up at least three runs.
Webb wants to finish the year strong, and in his one outing against the Diamondbacks this season, he pitched seven shutout innings, allowing just two hits and striking out five.
The starting pitcher for the Diamondbacks is Brandon Pfaadt, who is 10-9 with a 4.66 ERA. Arizona is desperate for a quality start from Pfaadt, who is coming off an excellent outing against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Pfaadt went seven innings, allowing two hits, one run, and striking out 12.
Giants vs Diamondbacks Prediction
The Giants were able to take advantage of a hitter-friendly ballpark in Game 1. Game 2 will be a little harder for both teams to score runs, and Arizona will be playing with urgency. Expect a few key hits to make the difference, along with a lot of combined strikeouts.
