Kyle Harrison gets the nod for the Giants on Sunday Night Baseball
These teams have split the games so far in this series. San Francisco came out on top Friday Night, beating LA 6-2. However the Dodgers put up 11 runs the next day, beating the Giants 11-5 to even the series. Bragging rights (and the top spot of the division) are at stake tonight as the two get ready to settle the series on ESPN.
Matchup Information – Giants vs. Dodgers – June 15
The Dodgers lead the Giants by exactly one game. Los Angeles is 42-29 while San Francisco is 41-30. A win for the Giants today ties things up in the NL West. But the Dodgers are a very good team at home. They post a 24-12 record at Dodger Stadium, and they hit lefties just as well as they do right handed pitchers.
The Giants' team average takes a big hit on the road but also makes a jump against righties. Will Kyle Harrison or Dustin May shove tonight in Los Angeles?
The Giants have been on quite the heater, but tonight the Dodgers win this series. They are ridiculously good at home, including only losing the series twice, most recently splitting with the Mets when they came to town for four games. The hosts rallied in the final game of that series to avoid the loss, and I bet they do so again tonight.
This is the first of a three games series stand at home for the Dodgers. A perfect time for them to pick up plenty of wins. They have four games against the San Diego Padres followed by three against the Washington Nationals, and are very capable of winning all three series.
Harrison only has four starts this season, never making it to the sixth inning. In 18.1 innings, he's allowed 10 earned runs on 18 hits including three home runs and six walks as a starter. As for May, his 4.46 ERA drops to 2.97 at home, while his 1.31 WHIP decreases to 1.12. He's going to shove and get plenty of run support tonight.
Give me the Dodgers by two on Sunday Night Baseball.
