Let’s look for him to continue his hot streak tonight in a great hitting environment at Minute Maid Park.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mookie Betts was a Giants killer last season with 2+ HRR in 5 of 6 head-to-head games and he’s logged a hit in all six games. Betts went 11-24 (.458) in those games with two home runs and two triples. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Now he gets an opportunity to feast Logan Webb who he’s gone 15-36 (.370) against with two home runs and two doubles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Webb is a true ace, but he hasn’t been as effective on the road where he’s posted a 3.95 ERA & .261 OBA compared to 1.36 ERA & .244 OBA at home.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n That trend includes his four starts against the LAD during the 2024 campaign as he allowed only 2ER across 13 IP in two starts at home compared to 9ER across 8.2 IP in two starts on the road.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Webb has also really struggled with this Dodgers lineup in general as they have hit a combined .328 against him with 6 home runs across 192 at-bats.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Giants bullpen isn’t in horrible shape but some of their key arms will be in question as Doval has pitched on back-to-back days and Rogers threw 20 pitches yesterday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Betts might be in the best batting position in the MLB as he hits behind Shohei Ohtani and in front of Freddie Freeman. He’s covered this HRR line in 6 of his last 7 games overall and I fully expect another strong effort tonight.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Need an extra hand breaking down today’s baseball slate?
