Giants Bounced Back

The Giants had lost two games in a row heading into Saturday’s game, but they were able to pick up the victory. It wasn’t the prettiest game and they only scored three runs, but it was enough. Landen Roupp got the start and he went seven innings giving up five hits, two runs and seven strikeouts. Matt Chapman was the top offensive player hitting a home run and driving in two RBIs. The pitching has given up only four runs in this series but the offense has not been that great. 

Overall the Giants offense has been elite this season averaging 5.09 runs while their pitching is giving up 3.62 runs per game. The offense and pitching is both ranked 4tth in the league. Getting the start for the Giants is Justin Verlander who sits with an 0-1 record and an ERA of 6.75. Against the Philadelphia Phillies in his last start he went 5.2 innings giving up eight hits and five runs. 

LA Angels Need to Get the Offense Going

The Angels need to get the offense going here, or it’s going to be a very long game again. On Friday they won 2-0 but on Satrday the pitching wasn’t as good and they ended up losing 3-2. Even though they lost, Mike Trout hit two home runs and his bat being hot is going to be a key. Kyle Hendricks went five innings giving up four hits and three earned runs. 

The Angels are averaging 4.15 runs while their pitching is giving up 4.65 runs per game. The offense is ranked 19th while the pitching is ranked 22nd. Geting the start for the Angels will be Yusei Kikuchi who sitts with an 0-3 record and an ERA of 4.13. Against the New York Rangers in his last start he went six innings giving up three hits and one run. That was his best start of the entire season. 

San Francisco Giants vs LA Angels Prediction

The first few games of thi series have been low scoring, and it’s going to happen again here. Justin Verlander has a high ERA, but the Angels’ bats have been ice cold outside of Trout. Kikuchi was a good addition for the Angels this offseason and he was dominant in his last start. The Giants ofense is going to really struggle to get anything going here, and runs are going to be awful here. Back the under to cash.
