The Giants completed the sweep in their 3-game series against the Atlanta Braves 3-0. They enter this game with a 40-28 record overall and have a road record of 18-17. This is the series opener of a 3-game series with the Dodgers on Friday with the series finale of their series against the Colorado Rockies still to be played on Thursday. The Giants won the series opener of that series on Tuesday and the 2nd game on Wednesday. Their offense ranks 24th in the MLB with a .681 OPS. Hayden Birdsong is their starting pitcher on Thursday while Logan Webb is making his start in this game on Friday. He is 5-5 with a 2.58 ERA this season. His team lost 3 of their last 4 games this season with him making an appearance. In his last MLB regular season start, he allowed 2 ER, 1 HR, and 0 BB with 10 SO on 6 hits through 6 IP against the Atlanta Braves.

The Dodgers are entering this series off a win and won their 3-game series against the San Diego Padres 2-1 in their last series. They enter this game with a 41-28 record overall and have a home record of 23-11. This is the 1st game of a 3-game series with the Giants on Friday and they have Thursday off as a day of rest. Their offense ranks 2nd in the MLB with a .797 OPS. Ben Casparius was their starting pitcher on Wednesday while Yoshinobu Yamamoto is making his start in this game on Friday. He is 6-4 with a 2.20 ERA this season. His team lost their last 2 straight games this season with him making an appearance. In his last MLB regular season start, he allowed 0 earned runs, 0 homers, and 2 walks with 9 strikeouts on 4 hits through 6 innings pitched against the St Louis Cardinals.

The current betting odds have the Dodgers listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Dodgers have looked great in their games this season with their 41-28 record overall which has them right at the top of the NL West with one of the best records in the entire MLB. They have also looked great in their own ballpark with their 23-11 home record. Meanwhile, the Giants have looked really good in their games this season with their 40-28 record overall which has them right near the top of the NL West. They haven't been a great road team though with their 18-17 road record this season. The Giants have been really hot lately as they are 8-2 in their last 10 games, but the Dodgers just won their last series against a good Padres team and they will bring their best effort in this series for the division rival that is right on their tail in the standings. They are going to have their ace on the mound in this one too. The Dodgers are going with Yamamoto and he has looked great this season. He is 6-4 with a 2.20 ERA and hasn't been giving up many runs at all this year. His team has lost 2 games in a row with him starting, but he gave up no runs in his last start and that has been a common theme for him so the team is going to be pushing to get him a win here in this important division game. Webb is on the mound for the Giants here and he has also looked good this season. He is 5-5 with a 2.58 ERA and hasn't been giving up many runs this season either. He only gave up 2 earned runs in his last start too, but the Giants have still lost 3 of the last 4 games that he started in and they are going to have problems now that they are on the road against one of the best offenses in the MLB. The best way to place a bet here is on the Dodgers to win this game.

“It’s a great opportunity for him. He made a great play defensively. He’s got a real opportunity to do some good things while Chappy is out. We’re lucky to have him.” - Bob Melvin after his team’s win against the Rockies in their game on Wednesday.

"By way of need and where we were at, we felt that there was more value out of the 'pen and being kind of a versatile-type reliever. But where we are at now, currently, he’s certainly showing that he’s one of five. The next time he’s on the mound, it'll be as a starter." - Dave Roberts after his team’s win against the Padres in their game on Wednesday.
