The Giants have climbed back to 13-15 and are getting timely offense from the middle of their lineup. Tyler Mahle takes the mound looking to improve on his 1-3 record, though his 5.26 ERA and 1.60 WHIP show he has been hittable.

Phillies Preivew

Philadelphia comes in after another frustrating loss, falling 6-2 to Atlanta and dropping to 9-19 on the season. The Phillies have lost nine of their last ten and continue searching for consistency on both sides of the ball. Jesús Luzardo starts here with a 1-3 record and a rough 6.92 ERA, as he has struggled badly to limit damage early in games.

Phillies vs Giants Pitching Matchup

Neither starter inspires much confidence, which makes offense a major focus in this matchup. San Francisco has been the hotter club and should feel confident against a Phillies staff that keeps giving up crooked numbers. Philadelphia still has enough bats to threaten, especially at home, but their pitching has made every game difficult.

Phillies vs Giants Pick

The Phillies are still listed as favourites despite their recent slide, while the total sits at 7.5. That number feels low considering both starters have allowed plenty of traffic and both bullpens have been unreliable. San Francisco also has better momentum entering this series opener.
