Hey, would you look at that, it’s time for a brand new series. The San Francisco Giants are back on the road, and they’re taking on one of the teams they’re battling in Wild Card positioning: the Chicago Cubs.
Kicking off the series for the Giants is righty Jordan Hicks, who makes his 15th start of the year. In his first year with the Giants, he’s 4-3 with a 3.01 ERA, a 3.67 FIP, and 64 strikeouts to 24 walks in 71.2 innings. He’s been in a little bit of a funk lately, and had his last start cut short due to illness.
