San Francisco Giants at Chicago Cubs Prediction

The Giants are back in this series and have Moore on the hill and he has given up only two earned runs in his last two starts, both of which were at home. The Giants had only totaled two runs in the first two games of the season before scoring six in last night’s game. San Francisco’ Buster Posey went 3 for 5 in last night’s game and in two of the three games in this series he has had multi-hit games. Lackey has been a solid playoff pitcher in his career, but the last time he faced the Giants in the post-season was in 2014 when he was with the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals took the loss in that game and the same thing will happen tonight with Lackey on the hill, as the Giants will get to him and their shaky bullpen will hold up, as San Francisco will win and send this series to a decisive Game 5 in the Windy City.
