The San Francisco Giants step into the second game of a three-game series with the Cincinnati Reds looking to win their third straight win and seventh of their last eight games. The Giants are gaining a bit of steam as of late, compiling a 7-3 record over their last 10 games. Their 3-0 win in the series opener vs. the Reds has put the spotlight on the Giants' strong form from the mound. San Francisco sports a 1.80 ERA over their last five while holding teams to a .176 batting average. Meanwhile, the Reds are 5-5 in their last 10 games, scoring 3.6 runs per game on a .206 batting average. Cincinnati are at the bottom of NL Central standings with a 52-47 record, but only trail the division-leading Milwaukee Brewers (62-47) by just 10 games.

Pitchers Matchup: Giants LHP Kyle Harrison (6-4, 3.69 ERA with 90 strikeouts) vs. Reds RHP Hunter Greene (7-4, 2.97 ERA with 138 strikeouts).

Cincinnati Reds - San Francisco Giants Key Points

  1. Reds hurler Hunter Greene allowed one run in four starts last July.
  2. Reds hurler Hunter Greene ranks 10th in the MLB with a 2.97 ERA.
  3. Hunter Greene blanked the Giants through 5.1 innings in his last start vs. the team in August 2023.
  4. The Giants are hitting .236 with 4.6 runs per game over their ten games vs. right-handed pitchers.

Our Cincinnati Reds vs San Francisco Giants Prediction

Hunter Greene put together a strong run in July, allowing just one run in four starts. The Reds' hurler owns the 10th-best ERA in Major League Baseball at 2.97 and the 14th-highest strikeout total at 138. Greene will be taking on a Giants team that has batted .236 with 4.6 runs per game over their ten games vs. a right-handed pitcher. I like Greene's chance of keeping the Giants under three runs in this match as he has been very sharp recently, not to mention that he shut out the Giants in his first and only start against the team in August last year. Our betting prediction for San Francisco Giants vs. Cincinnati Reds: Bet on Hunter Greene to allow UNDER 2.5 earned runs, -130, at DraftKings.

Prediction:

 

Hunter Greene UNDER 2.5 Earned Runs.
