San Francisco Giants (3-1) vs. Houston Astros (2-2)
Tuesday, 8:10 p.m. EDT, Houston

Probable Pitchers:

  • Giants: Logan Webb (0-0, 5.40 ERA, 1.80 WHIP, 5 strikeouts)
  • Astros: Hayden Wesneski (0-0)

BetMGM Sportsbook Line:

  • Giants -119, Astros -101
  • Over/Under: 8 runs

Here's a look at tonight's lineup with Hayden Wesneski on the hill.

Bottom Line:

The San Francisco Giants aim to secure a series win against the Houston Astros after taking the opener. San Francisco is off to a strong start at 3-1, while Houston looks to even its record after a 2-2 start to the season.

The Astros, who finished 88-73 last season with a solid 46-35 home record, will rely on their lineup to generate runs against Logan Webb. Houston averaged 4.6 runs per game in 2024 while holding opponents to four runs per contest. Wesneski, making his Astros debut, will look to contain a Giants offense that averaged eight hits per game last season and launched 177 home runs.

Injuries:

  • Astros: Shawn Dubin (shoulder), Forrest Whitley (knee), J.P. France (shoulder), Luis Garcia (elbow), Cristian Javier (elbow), Taylor Trammell (calf), Kaleb Ort (oblique), Pedro Leon (knee), Lance McCullers Jr. (forearm).
  • Giants: Tom Murphy (back), Jerar Encarnacion (finger).

Both teams will look to set the tone early as they continue this early-season interleague matchup.
