Preview

Two teams at the opposite end of the league, the Diamondbacks take their joint-worst record in the MLB to Oracle Park in San Francisco for a three-game series against the league's best record and their division rivals.  The D'backs lost their last series 2-1 to the Dodgers and lost 3-1 to the Braves before that.  The Giants are still locked in a battle for the NL West crown against the Dodgers and have a two-game lead.  They have already wrapped up a playoff spot although this series could be the nail in the coffin in that division title race.  

Pitching matchup

Diamondbacks

Luke Weaver (3-6, 4.38 ERA) Luke Weaver will make his 13th start of the season for Arizona.  His 6-year career MLB career sees him as a career 4.66 ERA pitcher.  In 2021, Weaver has a 4.38 ERA over 61.2 innings pitched with a 1.10 WHIP.  Weaver gave up 55 hits this season for 30 ERs and has 16 walks while striking out 36 batters.  

Giants

Logan Webb (10-3, 3.04 ERA) Logan Webb is expected to start his 25th game of the season.  Webb has a 3.99 ERA this season - the best season of his three-year career - and a WHIP of 1.11.  HE has 136.1 innings pitched this season and has surrendered 118 hits for 46 ERs.  He also has struck out 144 batters and walked 34.  

Prediction

The Giants know that this is their perfect opportunity to wrap up the division or at least put some distance between them and the Dodgers.  Arizona has struggled on the road this season so expect more of the same tonight.  

PICK: Giants money line (-263)
