The San Francisco Giants will go for an equalizer as they attempt to recover from an embarrassing series-opening loss to the Chicago Cubs in Tuesday’s Game 2 at Wrigley Field.
The Giants absorbed a huge 2-9 loss to the Cubs in Game 1 of their series. San Francisco, 12th in the MLB with 166 runs, could only score two runs as the Cubs hurler completely smothered them from start to finish. With the loss, the Giants’ record dropped to 22-14, third in the NL West standings.
The Cubs reinforced their position atop the NL Central with the win on Tuesday. Chicago is currently the No.1 scoring team in the MLB, averaging 6.1 runs per game on a .263 batting average this season. The Cubs are mid in terms of pitching, but they will be sending probably their most consistent pitcher this season in Colin Rea (2-0, 1.46 ERA) to the mound in Game 2.

Our San Francisco Giants vs Chicago Cubs Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Cubs’ offense stays hot, beats the Giants again
On Tuesday, we have a terrific matchup on the mound when Colin Rea duels with former CY Young Winner Justin Verlander (1-4, 3.94 ERA). After a slow start to his Giants stint, Verlander has slowly stabilized his numbers, giving up just 4 earned runs across 3 games. Unfortunately, the Giants have gone 0-4 in his last four starts. On the other hand, Rea has powered the Cubs to a victory in his last four trips on the mound. The Cubs have also won by at least two runs in these wins, which bodes well for bettors who picked Chicago to beat the -1.5 run handicap. Our betting prediction for Chicago Cubs vs. San Francisco Giants: Cubs -1.5 Runs
