- Analysis
- The Giants are coming into this game with a 62-88 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They have lost their last 3 straight games and their pitching has been awful in these as they have allowed 6+ runs in their last 4 straight games. They have been much worse on the road this season as well at 26-49. They are going up against a Cardinals team that is 74-76 this season and they have been better in their recent games. They have won 2 of their last 3 games now and their offense has been much better in these. They have scored 5+ runs in 3 of their last 4 games and their pitching has also been better as they have allowed 3 runs or less in 2 of their last 3 as well as 3 of their last 5 games. Landen Roupp is starting for the Giants in this game and he is 9-13 with a 4.00 ERA this season. He has been much better in his last 3 starts, but he has struggled all season and prior to those 3 starts he had allowed 4+ runs in 2 straight as well as 4 of his last 5 starts. He has also been much worse on the road this season and has allowed 4+ runs in 2 of his last 3 starts. He has 2 career starts against the Cardinals as well and he is 1-1 with a 5.59 ERA in those. Quinn Mathews is starting for the Cardinals in this game and he is 1-3 with a 4.11 ERA this season. He has been good recently and this season, allowing 2 earned runs or less in each of his last 3 as well as 5 of his 6 starts this year and he has pitched 5+ innings in 5 of his 6 starts as well. He was also great in his only home start as he allowed 1 earned run in close to 6 innings pitched against a very good offense in the Pirates. He saw the Giants last week as well and allowed 2 earned runs in 6 innings pitched, his deepest start of the season. The Cardinals are still trying to stay alive in the playoff race even though they are far behind the pack and they have been playing better recently while the Giants are struggling again and their season is already over. The Cardinals will win this game at home.
