Giants

Hoping to get the team's struggling starting pitching back on track is left-hander Carlos Rodon. Through four starts this season, he has been very impressive, going 3-0 with a 1.17 ERA. In 23.0 innings, he has allowed only 11 hits and eight walks.

In the seventh inning against Washington, Mike Ford hit a two-run double to help the Giants score two runs. Despite their .237 batting average, San Francisco is currently leading the league in runs scored with an average of 4.97 runs per game.

The Giants' bats have been powered by the long ball, as they are tied for eighth in the league with 24 home runs. Joc Pederson has been on a hot streak, as he is currently hitting .353 with six home runs and 11 runs scored.

 

Dodgers

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Julio Urias is currently 1-2 with a 2.50 ERA through four starts. He will take the mound on Tuesday's game. In his first start of the season, he allowed six runs on three hits in 2.0 innings. Since then, he has been able to bounce back and allow two earned runs in his last 16.0 innings.

The Dodgers are currently leading the NL West standings with lower runs per game than the Giants. Los Angeles averages 4.94 runs per game.

They are also 13th in the league with 21 home runs, and they are led by Freddie Freeman, who has been on a hot streak since he was acquired from Atlanta. However, Cody Bellinger is struggling at the plate, as he is hitting .208.
