Game Preview
The San Francisco Giants will be hosting the Oakland Athletics for the first game of a two-game series at Oracle Park in San Francisco on Tuesday July 25.
The Giants are currently in the 3rd spot after several times silently making progress up to the forefront of the NL West over the initial part of their campaign. They are just 4.5 games below the Dodgers and still very much in the running for the Wild Card, which further heightens the tension and pressure of an undoubtedly captivating campaign. They proved marginally more successful at home, going 26-22, but it could have no impact in this game.
Alex Cobb is scheduled to start on the mound for the Giants in this matchup. He has a 6-3 record with a 3.15 ERA, a 1.39 WHIP and 91 strikeouts.
This campaign, the Athletics have garnered negative attention for a variety of motives, including their subpar performance on the field and dubious managerial choices. It shouldn’t be shocking that they currently have the poorest record in the entire league and are 32 games away from the top spot, which constitutes an incredible number. There’s little question about the fact that they won’t compete in the playoffs this year, yet they would do anything to be able to ruin the campaign of another team, especially one of their regional rivals. It appears to be expecting a great deal of this team to pull off an unexpected victory on Tuesday with a 3-7 record during their previous 10 games along with just 13 wins away from home this year.
The Athletics will send Ken Waldichuk to counter as the starting pitcher for the first game of the series. Waldichuk sports a record of 2-6, an ERA of 6.75, a WHIP of 1.84 and 78 strikeouts.
