The Dodgers are not without their stars. Teoscar Hernández has been a force to reckon with, boasting an average of .750 and slugging 1.5 in one game, contributing significantly to his team's offensive firepower. Meanwhile, Freddie Freeman has consistently demonstrated his batting might, maintaining an average of .400 in his last outing and driving in crucial runs.


The upcoming game promises to be a thrilling showdown between two teams with potent players ready to make their mark. The Giants' hopes may hinge on Matos's bat and Webb's arm strength, but they face stiff competition from Hernández and Freeman of the Dodgers.
