The Los Angeles Dodgers look to extend their head-to-head win streak against the San Francisco Giants to four games in Game 2 of the Battle of the Bay at Dodger Stadium.

The Dodgers, 3-0 in their last three meetings with the Giants, are -175 favorites in Game 2, though they carry a +123 value on the -1.5 runline.

Current Form:

The Dodgers’ back-to-back wins over the Phillies (5-0) and the Giants (2-1) improved their record to 86-67, padding their lead over the 83-70 San Diego Padres to three games. Meanwhile, the Giants dropped below .500 at 76-77, which moved them three games off the last wild card spot currently occupied by the 79-74 New York Mets.

Stats Over the Last 5 Games:

The Dodgers have averaged 5.7 runs per game on a .292 BA over the last five games. Also in this stretch, Los Angeles has lowered their ERA to 3.33 after allowing one earned run in the last two games. The Giants’ offense has only produced 2.7 runs per game while maintaining a 4.70 ERA over their last five assignments.

Starting Pitchers:

Dodgers LHP Clayton Kershaw (10-2, 3.53 ERA) vs. Giants LHP Robbie Ray (11-7, 3.50 ERA).
