The Los Angeles Dodgers are coming off a narrow victory against the San Francisco Giants in Game 1. Despite having a rookie on the mound as their starter, the offense saved the day. The Dodger squad racked up three runs and restricted the Giants to two.
Teoscar Hernandez was the player of the game after his go-ahead single. The boys in blue look to pick up their second win as they turn Landon Knack to the mound in Game 2. Knack's MLB debut was not too bad, with a 3.23 ERA. With the absence of their top pitchers, Dave Roberts has no other option but to depend on who's left.
The Giants had Blake Snell on the mound, who had a decent performance. However, they failed to hold it all together, losing three of the last five games. After their slumping performance, the Giants have dropped to the 4th in the NL West. Making a postseason run seems to be a long shot at this moment.
Trending
Right-handed pitcher Jordan Hicks will get the nod in Game 2. Hicks has a 3.79 ERA with a 4-6 record. Going up against Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman and other veterans will be a challenge for the rookie. The Giants must provide support from the plate.

Knack will need to depend on the powerful bats to open up and provide the right support when necessary. Likewise, the Giants need to support their rookie pitcher. While the offense plays a crucial role here, the boys in blue will hold the upper hand in Game 2.
Ohtani, Hernandez and Freeman have been hot at the plate in the last few games. Ohtani has continued to smash home runs for his team. The Dodger squad is riding a four-game winning streak and is predicted to secure a victory here. This is expected to be a high-scoring game.
Prediction: Los Angeles Dodgers +1.5 (-160)
