The Los Angeles Dodgers will try to get back on the right side of the scoreboard today when they host the San Francisco Giants in Game Two of a four-game series. Fans can follow the action at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, CA., when the game gets underway at 10:10 p.m. EST on MLB.TV.

With a 9-3 loss to the Giants in Game One of the series on Monday, the Dodgers have now lost three in a row at home (two previously vs. the Atlanta Braves). While part of the problem has been a lack of offense, with seven runs scored over the last three games, it doesn’t help that they’ve allowed 7+ runs per loss.

They’ll turn to Yoshinobu Yamamoto to help get things turned around. Yamamoto is 1-1 in four starts at home with an ERA of 2.92 and has held opponents to a .205 batting average.

For the Giants, it was their second win in a row, coming on the heels of a 7-6 F/12 win over the Pirates. San Francisco will hand the ball to Adrian Houser to start the day. Houser has yet to win a decision this season (0-4 in seven starts) with a 6.19 ERA and 1.54 WHIP. He has done his best work on the road, where he has a 5.31 ERA (compared to 7.31 at home) and .265 OBA.

Our Los Angeles Dodgers vs San Francisco Giants Prediction

This game is a little tricky. The Dodgers' lineup has been in a bit of a slump with just 10 runs scored four games into their current homestand. But here they are, favored to win against a team that just beat them 9-3. How can this be possible? Because the Dodgers are one of the best teams in baseball and have too much talent on the squad to stay down for long. Facing a pitcher that’s as hittable as Houser should help the Dodgers' lineup come to life, allowing the Dodgers to win this one comfortably.

Our Giants vs. Dodgers Pick: Los Angeles -1.5
