Los Angeles Dodgers vs San Francisco: Second meeting of the season to be productive

The National League West Division rivals Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants will play the second game of the 2022 season series. The first game ended in a win for the Dodgers. Will the Giants be able to get revenge? There are several options to bet on at once.

Dodgers clinch the division lead

Dave Roberts' team finished the first game of the season series against their most critical rival, the San Francisco Giants, with a 3-1 victory. Thus, the Dodgers now remain in first place in the NL West division with a 15-7 balance. Although the LADs are still second in the entire National League, behind the New York Mets, who have won 18 of their 26 games.

The Dodgers left fielder Chris Taylor, who had 2 RBI, and starting pitcher Julio Urias, who did not allow a hit in 6 complete innings, were the biggest stars of the game against the Giants. Closer Craig Kimbrel recorded his 5th save of the season.

The Dodgers' starting pitcher for game two against San Francisco has not yet been named at the time of publication of this text. It will probably be Tyler Anderson, next in the team's pitching rotation behind Julio Urias.

San Francisco have lost four of their last five games

Preparing for the first game of the season series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Gabe Kepler's team lost 3 of their last 4 games against Oakland and Washington. So the match defeat against the Dodgers was the 4th for the Giants in the past 5 games. A disappointing stretch, although the winning streak before that allows San Francisco with a 14-9 balance currently to sit fifth in the entire National League. In the NL West division, the Giants, meanwhile, are only third. Besides the Dodgers, the Giants are also ahead of the San Diego Padres in the division.

Alex Wood will pitch for San Francisco in the upcoming game. The pitcher is 2-1 in four starts in the new season and has a 4.19 slugging percentage.

Expert Betting Tips

In the first game at Dodger Stadium, San Francisco were healthy defensively but were unable to prove themselves at bat. In the second game, the Giants will surely add to their offense. Although they should miss their wounds too. When Alex Wood starts on the mound for the Giants this season, matches turn out to be productive. We're betting on the upper hand, and also on San Francisco. The odds of the teams to win here are kind of equal, but the Giants are quoted higher on the Giants.
