Logan Webb and Paul Skenes face off as struggling Giants visit Pirates in pitching duel

Sports are fun for many reasons, but one main reason is that we expect one thing and then get something different.

The idea that on any given night an underdog can beat a favorite, or that a bench player can have a career night, is what makes them so engaging.

It can be incredibly frustrating as a sports bettor, but as a fan, it is awesome.

As a sports bettor, there are a lot of people frustrated by these two teams and pitchers from this season as the Giants take on the Pirates.

The San Francisco Giants are one of the worst teams in baseball, which is quite surprising.

The Giants are 57-81 for the season, and with their next loss, they will guarantee they are going to have a losing season.

It was pretty unlikely they would go undefeated this month, but they are likely to lose between 90 and 95 games.

This is another team in the league with plenty of talent, but they just couldn't put it together.

Can it be blamed on their manager? The front office? Or is it just a lack of success from the pitching and offense combined? I'd put most of the blame on the pitching staff as they carry a 4.34 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP into today's game.

As usual with this pitching staff, the lone bright spot has been Logan Webb.

This season, Webb is 8-8 with a 3.72 ERA and a 1.10 WHIP.

He is in a bad situation tonight, though.

On the road, he has a 4.16 ERA, and in night games, he has a 4.98 ERA.

Both are worse than his home and day starts.
