Expert Tips & Prediction
The San Francisco Giants have Logan Webb pitching for them here, and that could be the difference in this game. So far this season, he has allowed ten runs in 23.2 innings despite 3 of his four starts on the road. However, Ryne Nelson is good and the Diamondbacks have solid .296 in 125 at bats, which is commendable. Regardless, at home, the Giants should at least get the nod as they come in as favorites in what could potentially be a tight game at the end.
