Philadelphia Phillies vs San Francisco Giants Prediction: Phillies keep delivering

Citizens Bank Park will host game 3 of a four-game set between the Philadelphia Phillies and San Francisco Giants. The Philadelphia Phillies have won the first two games. Can Giants deliver this time? 

The Philadelphia Phillies were brilliant in the first two games of this series, and they now come into this one with full confidence. In the first game, the Philadelphia Phillies secured a 4-3 win, and they delivered a 14-3 victory in game 2. However, their prior series to this was against the Los Angeles Angels, and this side won two of the series. The Philadelphia Phillies have won eight of their last nine games, a run where they had a sweep over the San Diego Padres. The Philadelphia Phillies are 23-11 this season, sending them top of the National League.

San Francisco Giants are on a poor form of games, and in the first two games of this series, they have faced consecutive defeats. However, looking at their prior series to this, the San Francisco Giants lost to the Boston Red Sox but did well to win two of their games against the Pittsburgh Pirates. This season, the San Francisco Giants have a 15-19 record, 12th in the National League and 3rd in the National League West.

The San Francisco Giants are not worth backing yet, and after such huge disappointments in the first two games, this side has to do better. However, the Philadelphia Phillies will have more pressure, and following a number of big wins in recent games, I feel this side will step up once again, and a win for them is sure.
