J.D. Davis went 1-for-3 with a single and a walk as the Giants were shut out by the Padres on Sunday afternoon in San Diego. As a team, the Giants tallied just four hits on the afternoon against Seth Lugo and a host of Padres’ relievers. Davis and Wilmer Flores were the only hitters in the Giants’ lineup to reach base twice in the contest.

Giants vs. Cubs MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Give me the under. I can’t believe this total is this high today, although weather always impacts the over/under at Wrigley. Nevertheless, Webb has posted a 3.69 ERA and 2.85 FIP over his last five starts, which span 31 2/3 innings of work. Steele, meanwhile, is 3-0 with a 3.18 ERA and 3.01 FIP over his last five starts (28 1/3 innings). Both offenses have also struggled of late, as the Cubs have posted a 93 wRC+ over their last 11 games, while the Giants have posted a 71 wRC+ over their last 10 contests.
MLB BETTING PREDICTION: GIANTS/CUBS UNDER 9
