Are you all excited for the San Francisco Giants to play yet another series against the Arizona Diamondbacks? I sure hope so because the Giants are starting their penultimate series of the year against the snakes tonight in San Francisco. And today’s game is basically a rematch of last Saturday. Same teams. Same pitchers. With hopefully different results.
Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Alex Cobb, who enters today’s game with a 3.67 ERA, 2.93 FIP, with 139 strikeouts to 42 walks in 139.2 innings pitched. As mentioned both he and Kelly’s last starts were last Saturday’s 5-2 Diamondbacks victory, in which Cobb allowed five runs on five hits (and was hung out to dry by the defense) with three strikeouts and two walks in five innings.
