The 14-8 New York Mets will go for a series win when they wrap up their 4-game set with the 7-13 San Francisco Giants at Oracle Park. Today’s probable starters are Ross Stripling for San Francisco and Tyler Megill for New York. Stripling is 0-1 with an elevated 7.30 ERA and a 1.46 WHIP. Megill has pitched well. He comes in at 3-1 with a respectable ERA of 3.00 and a 1.43 WHIP. Despite yesterday’s win, San Francisco has not played well. They are just 3-7 in their last 10, 3-6 at home, and following a win they are 0-8 in their last 8. The Mets are a legitimate World Series contender and the Giants are not. Tyler Megil will keep San Francisco’s offense in check and New York’s potent bats should get to Stripling today.
