San Francisco Giants (40-34) vs Chicago White Sox (35-39)

I normally hop on the Giants when it’s Logan Webb pitching at home, but Dylan Cease has been pitching that well, that I think the White Sox are a real threat to be a threat to San Fran’s current run with Webb at home. Cease has been outstanding, boasting a 2.56 ERA this season, and he has been much better on the road, posting a 1.76 ERA this season. The White Sox, despite their struggles, have also won four of Cease’s five starts in June and Cease has allowed just one earned run in his last three starts spanning 18 innings of work. On the flipside, I’ve said it time and time again, Logan Webb pitches extremely well at home at Oracle Park, going 5-1 with a 2.40 ERA at home this season and in five starts in June, Webb had a 2.08 ERA, his best month of the season so far. Runs were extremely scarce on Friday in the opener and I expect it to be just as tough with a far better pitching matchup and two scuffling offenses. Give me the under as my best bet of the entire day on Saturday.
