Key Storylines

• The Giants are looking to snap a four-game losing streak with a win here.
• The Braves are looking to end a two-game losing streak of their own.
• Atlanta is running out of time to turn their season around. They are 10.5 games out of a Wild Card position and can’t afford to lose many more games.

Pitching Form

• Hayden Birdsong is 4-3 with a 4.11 ERA for the Giants on the year. He has strikeout stuff but his control is inconsistent.
• Bryce Elder has struggled in 2025. He is 3-6 and has a 5.65 ERA and will look to spark a turnaround in this start.

Bullpen Usage

• The Giants have the best bullpen ERA in baseball at 3.17.
• Atlanta’s bullpen isn’t bad either. They have a 3.84 bullpen ERA but any bullpen looks bad next to that of the Giants.

Final Thoughts

I am not ready to keep waiting for the Atlanta Braves to turn their season around. The truth of the matter is that the Braves are just not the team we expected them to be going into this season. The Giants are playing better baseball and have the better starting pitcher and bullpen going into this contest. I’ll take the Giants to win this matchup on the road.
