The Chicago Cubs have been hindered by the Giants pitching staff scoring three runs or less in both games in the series. On the other side San Francisco has ignited with seventeen total runs, including twelve in yesterday’s victory. I fully expect today’s matchup to be more of a pitcher’s duel between Logan Webb and Shots Imanaga. Tail the Cubs to finish this game off with one big hit against the Giants bullpen.

San Francisco has won four straight against the Cubs. Now, they face lefty Shota Imanaga and they have not fared well against lefties on the season, hitting .209, worst in the majors. In the month of August, San Francisco has the second-worst OPS against lefties. Imanaga hasn’t gotten the run support in August as the Cubs have only score more than two runs once in his four starts this month but has a favorable matchup to avoid the sweep.
