Watch Atlanta Braves vs San Francisco Giants MLB Baseball Live Streaming Online, MLB 2018 Regular Seasons. San Francisco Giants vs Atlanta Braves match will be kickoff at AT&T Park, Australia, Wednesday 13 September 2018 online, 12:45 PM PDT and its broadcast on this link.
Atlanta comes into the new week 4.5 games ahead of Philadelphia in the NL East. There’s a good chance the wild cards will come elsewhere in this league, so it’s better for the Braves to get as many wins as possible. There’s a good chance they can add to their total against the lifeless Giants this week. The offense has been rolling lately with an average of 6.1 runs per nine innings over the last five games (3-2 in that stretch with a 1-run loss to Boston).
Foltynewicz has gone 0-2 personally during a four-game losing streak for the Braves with him on the mound. He’s actually had some really good outings in this stretch. He’s given up one run or less in three of those contests with a pitching ratio of 27 Ks to 6 BBs.
Left-hander, Derek Holland will get the start for the Giants. Holland comes into this game with an ERA of 3.54, and is 7-8 on the season. The 31-year-old has tallied 152 strikeouts and ranks 1st on the Giants with 152.2 innings pitched. Holland will match up versus right-hander Anibal Sanchez, who enters the game with a 3.09 ERA and 114 strikeouts in 113.2 innings.
After spending most of the season hovering around the .500 mark, San Francisco has really taken a tumble in the standings as the offense continues to be lifeless. Take away a 9-8 loss to Colorado last Monday, the Giants have scored three runs or less in seven of those recent defeats. Pitching has also uncharacteristically fallen apart with a booming 6.55 bullpen ERA. One reliable hitter has been outfielder Austin Slater with 6 hits and 3 RBIs in his last 6 games.
Suarez couldn’t string any more wins together after a great couple of outings at home. He gave up five total hits in back-to-back games against the New York Mets and Texas, both lasting seven innings. In comparison, he gave up five runs to Colorado last time out.
The Braves are the favorite at -1.5, 66.1% have picked the Braves to cover the spread. The total number of points scored for the over/under is listed at 7.5, 54.4% have picked the over. The moneyline for this game is Giants: +125, Braves: -150 and 80% have picked the Braves to win the game.
Thanks in large part to 20-year-olds Ronald Acuna Jr. and Ozzie Albies, the Braves will take the field Monday as the second-ranked team in the NL in scoring and batting average.
They will be up against Giants 26-year-old Dereck Rodriguez (6-2, 2.41), who ranks fifth in the NL among all pitchers with 15 or more starts in ERA (2.41) and tied for sixth in winning percentage (6-2, .750).
Like the Giants, who have lost eight in a row, Rodriguez has had a tough time getting wins of late. He has one loss and two no-decisions to show for his last three starts, during which he has given up just six runs and 14 hits in 17 innings against Texas, Arizona and Colorado.
One of baseball's best collections of young hitters goes head-to-head with one of the National League's best young starting pitchers when the Atlanta Braves and San Francisco Giants begin a three-game series Monday night.
The Braves flew into San Francisco on Sunday night on a high, having rallied for six runs in the top of the ninth inning to beat Arizona 9-5 and take three of four in a battle of playoff hopefuls.
The 25-year-old has struggled of late, getting roughed up for 35 hits and 21 runs in 23 2/3 innings in his last five starts. He's 1-3 in those games and the Braves are 2-3.Newcomb has faced the Giants just once in his career, posting a no-decision in a 5-3 win last June in which he limited the Giants to one run and three hits for six innings.
He will be seeing a Giants team this time around that suffered the unfortunate distinction of getting swept in Milwaukee despite out-hitting the Brewers in all three games. That hadn't happened to the Giants since a 2009 series against San Diego.They managed to avoid splitting four at Arizona by virtue of their six-run ninth, which featured a go-ahead home run by Ender Inciarte and lead-padding homers by Lucas Duda and Johan Camargo.
