Trevor McDonald takes the mound for the Giants, with the right-hander making his eighth start of the year. So far this season, the 25-year old is 2-3 with a 4.15 ERA, a 3.51 FIP, and 37 strikeouts to 12 walks in 39 innings. His last start came against this Cubs team, when he held them to one run in five innings.
For the Cubs, it’s right-hander Ben Brown, who makes his seventh start, and 19th appearance of the season. The 26-year old is 2-2 with a 1.74 ERA, a 2.24 FIP, and 58 strikeouts to 16 walks in 57 innings. He’s been even better since transitioning to a starting role, including in his last start, when he matched up against McDonald and held the Giants scoreless in 5.1 innings.
Perhaps we’ll get another nice pitcher’s duel in this one. Enjoy the action, everyone. Go Giants!
