THE PLAY: 1H Athletics -120 H Birdsong (RHP), J Lopez (LHP) Must Start
Hayden Birdsong's transition from the bullpen to the starting rotation has not been a smooth one. Since becoming a starter at the end of May, Birdsong has posted an ERA over 6.00 in his last seven outings. In his last five starts, he's allowed 16 walks while striking out 22 hitters. Jacob Lopez has enjoyed a much smoother transition from the 'pen to the starting rotation in Sacramento. Lopez took a similar path as Birdsong, beginning the year as a reliever before stretching into a starting role in late-May. Lopez had five starts in the month of June and posted a 2.64 ERA with a 1.08 WHIP. He enters Sunday in the top-25th percentile among pitchers in expected batting average allowed, average exit velocity, strikeout rate, barrel rate and hard-hit rate. Sacramento's Sutter Health Park profiles as a hitter-friendly park because of the warm temperatures and stiff breeze that is usually blowing out, but Lopez has enjoyed pitching at his new home this season. He has a 2.74 ERA with a 1.17 WHIP at home, compared to an ERA over 5.00 on the road. In his last home start against the red-hot Astros, he allowed one run on four hits with nine strikeouts in 6.0 innings. The Giants are hitting .212 against left-hand pitching this season (last in MLB) with a .281 on-base percentage (No. 29) and a 77 wRC+ (No. 24). We're going to focus on the first five innings because the Giants will likely enjoy a bullpen advantage in the second half of this game. Logan Webb went 6.2 innings on Saturday and the Giants' bullpen was flawless in the final innings.
