Chicago Cubs vs San Francisco Giants Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 6/26/24, 10:46 AM  by Will Chace | Modified on 6/26/24 at 10:47 AM in MLB Picks

Two National League clubs who play in uniquely constructed, generally windy ballparks square off Wednesday night as the Chicago Cubs take on the San Francisco Giants. The first game of this series was a thriller to those who caught the ending. Wilmer Flores’ bases-loaded walk completed a 3-run comeback to defeat the Giants in a walk-off ninth inning. The victory was their first in six games, pulling them even with the Cubs at 37-42 on the year. San Francisco’s traveling endeavors have been the bane of their season in this first half, going just 16-25 on the road compared to a strong 21-17 record at Oracle Park. Neither team has announced a pitching decision for Wednesday’s affair, leaving the possibility of the use of “openers” in play. Both teams play division leaders after this series. San Francisco will face one of their many California rivals in the Los Angeles Dodgers, while Chicago will move on to Milwaukee.
