The San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers meet Tuesday in MLB action from Dodger Stadium. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this Game. Here’s a LA Dodgers vs San Francisco Giants Prediction.

Starting Pitching Matchup

The San Francisco Giants will send out Jordan Hicks for the start here and Hicks is 4-6 with a 3.79 ERA and 83 strikeouts this season. In his career, Hicks is 0-0 with a 2.70 ERA and 5 strikeouts against the Dodgers. The Los Angeles Dodgers will start Landon Knack here and Knack is 1-2 with a 3.23 ERA and 36 strikeouts this season. This will be Knack’s second career start against the Giants.

San Francisco Giants Recap

The San Francisco Giants will try to bounce back after starting the series on the wrong foot after ending up with a narrow 3-2 loss in Monday’s series opener, which wasn’t ideal after starting the second half with a series loss to the Colorado Rockies this past weekend.

Giants Trying To Find Consistency

Entering Monday, Thairo Estrada has 71 hits along with 9 home runs and 43 RBIs while also chipping in 14 doubles. Michael Conforto has 59 hits with 10 home runs, 16 doubles and 39 RBIs while Matt Chapman has 86 hits of his own alongside 25 doubles with 13 homers, 43 RBIs and 10 stolen bases. Chapman also has the dubious distinction of leading the Giants with 98 strikeouts this season. Heliot Ramos has a team-high 14 home runs and 46 RBIs while Jorge Soler has 11 homers and 34 RBIs.

Los Angeles Dodgers Recap

The Los Angeles Dodgers will try to keep things rolling along after picking up a 4th straight win out of the break thanks to their win over the Giants in Monday’s series opener. The win followed the three-Game sweep of the Red Sox to start the second half of the year. The Dodgers will play against the Astros following this series.

Dodgers Trying To Open Up More Space Atop NL West

Going into Monday’s opener, Shohei Ohtani has 120 hits including a team-high 30 home runs, 25 doubles and 70 RBIs with a .315 batting average while Mookie Betts has 86 hits with 16 doubles, 3 triples, 10 homers and 40 RBIs of his own, but continues to miss time because of an injury. Teoscar Hernandez also has 20 home runs with 64 RBIs and a team-high 116 strikeouts. Betts also has 9 stolen bases while Ohtani has a team-high 23 stolen bases. Freddie Freeman also has 66 RBIs with 25 doubles and Will Smith has added 19 doubles, 15 home runs and 56 RBIs.

LA Dodgers vs San Francisco Giants Prediction

I’m on the Dodgers here. Normally I don’t love Landon Knack as a starting option, but he’s pitched well in some spots and frankly I trust the Dodgers’ batting order a lot more behind him. Hicks hasn’t been good at all in the last month, and the Giants as a team are struggling to find their bats right now. Give me Los Angeles.
