I look for the Giants to keep rolling in this series. They have been playing so well and I just do not see them slowing down.
San Francisco is the much better team and I feel they will show that on Friday. I do not have much confidence with the Cubs here.
Kyle Hendricks has been getting hit around in his last couple starts and he will have his hands full against San Francisco. I look for the Giants to have a good night on offense.
Give me the Giants straight up here.
