Spencer Howard vs. Tyler Anderson
The San Francisco Giants welcome the Los Angeles Angels to Oracle Park tonight, as they begin a three-game series. Note that tonight’s game is once again an Apple TV+ game, because MLB clearly hates Giants fans getting to watch baseball on a Friday night. But I digress.
Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Spencer Howard, who enters today’s game with a 2.03 ERA, 3.45 FIP, with nine strikeouts to three walks in 13.1 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ 3-1 win over the Texas Rangers on Saturday, in which he allowed one run on three hits with two strikeouts and three walks in four and two thirds innings.
He’ll be facing off against Angels left-hander Tyler Anderson, who enters today’s game with a 2.63 ERA, 4.72 FIP, with 53 strikeouts to 33 walks in 82 innings pitched. His last start was in the Angels’ 6-1 loss to the Houston Astros on Saturday, in which he allowed four runs on seven hits with three strikeouts and a walk in six innings.
