Giants vs Tigers Prediction & Pick
The pitching matchup in this clash is nothing to write home about as Ross Stripling (0-3, 5.92 ERA) and Tarik Skubal (0-1, 5.25) are scheduled to take the mound. Skubal has yet to pitch more than 4.0 innings in any of his three outings, while Stripling has done so just twice in his last seven showings.
It makes diving into other aspects of this matchup important. With each starter not being known for an ability to pitch deep into games, bullpen management in the late innings will prove crucial. San Francisco checks in eighth in terms of bullpen ERA this year (3.74), while Detroi t ranks 18th (4.15).
That is not the only area in which San Francisco has an edge, either. The Giants rank seventh in on-base percentage when on the road (0.326) and the Tigers rank 25th in on-base percentage ath home (0.309). Look for manager Gabe Kapler's team to lean on its strengths and end the losing streak.
Final Score Prediction:'Giants: 6 | Tigers: 4
