It’s a good thing for the San Francisco Giants that they held such a large lead in the NL West, as the team has been faltering as of late. The Giants have lost six-straight games while being outscored 34-19 in that span. To make matter worse, the Giants continue their weekend series against the red-hot New York Yankees Saturday.
- The UNDER is 8-0 in the Yankees’ past eight games.
- The Giants are 0-5 SU and against the runline in their past five road games.
- Jeff Samardzija has a 6.52 ERA in three career outings against the Yankees.
It appears that it may be time for Giants’ fans to start worrying about Jeff Samardzija. The Shark continues to struggle as he has given up 32 runs and 12 home runs across his last seven outings. To pile on to that, Samadzija has a career 5.28 ERA in interleague games.
Ivan Nova will happily take the mound at Yankee Stadium, as the big right-hander has performed far better at home this year. Nova has a 3.74 ERA while holding batters to a .250 average at home, compared to his 6.25 ERA and batters hitting .307 in his road starts.
