The Cincinnati Reds and San Francisco Giants play the second of their three-game set today. The Reds have been abysmal this season, but they managed to steal the series' first game last night.

This is an important series for the Giants. They entered this series 5 1/2 games out of first place after dropping three of four to the Atlanta Braves. After last night's loss, they are now 6 1/2 out of first. The Giants need to take advantage in a series against the worst team in the National League.
Pitching tonight are Mike Minor for the Reds and Logan Webb for the Giants.
Minor has bounced around the league, filling in for teams in dire situations. He's finished the past three seasons with an ERA over 5. Minor is making his fifth start of the season and is already averaging four earned runs per start.
Logan Webb has been solid for San Fransisco this year. He's 6-2 with a 3.26 ERA. A couple bad starts have raised that ERA higher than it should be. Nevertheless, he shouldn't have any trouble shutting down this Cincinnati lineup.

"Logan Webb, 'Pitchers Who Rake' Club member." - Rob Friedman
Mike Minor is going to get lit up tonight. Giants are frustrated with their play of late, and they will take it out on Minor. He's prone to giving up runs, and the floodgates will open up tonight.
Minor Over 5 1/2 Hits Allowed (+112)
Cincinnati Reds vs. San Francisco Giants Prediction
The Giants find themselves in a severe rut. It was unfortunate that they had a four-game series with the hottest team in baseball. Now that they are playing Cincinnati, they need to pick up some wins. The Giants should take these next two.
