This game’s pitching matchup might not exactly light up the headlines, but for the committed Giants fans, it’s a chance to dig into the team’s strengths and see where things could improve as we move into the back half of the season.
Giants’ Pitching Puzzle: Adrian Houser Takes the Mound
The Giants are sending right-hander Adrian Houser to the mound this morning. His stats point to a tough assignment—Houser’s sitting at a 5.59 ERA and a 5.21 FIP over 56.1 innings.
If you’re not deep into baseball analytics, those numbers basically mean Houser’s had a rocky go of it. He’s let in more runs than you’d hope, and hasn’t really found a groove.
Houser’s Recent Performance and Season Totals
Looking at his season, Houser has 35 strikeouts and 21 walks. That’s not exactly dominant, and his control hasn’t been sharp.
His latest outing? He only made it through 3 2/3 innings, gave up four runs on eight hits, struck out four, and walked two. The Rockies beat the Giants 8-3 in that one. Not great, but honestly, it fits the pattern of his year so far.
Fans around the North Bay—maybe catching the game over coffee in Larkspur or grabbing veggies at the Ferry Building—are probably crossing their fingers for a better performance this time.
Brewers’ Young Arm: Coleman Crow Steps Up
Meanwhile, the Brewers are handing the ball to rookie right-hander Coleman Crow. Here’s where it gets a little more interesting.
Crow hasn’t pitched much in the big leagues yet, but he’s flashed some potential. He’s got a 3.14 ERA and a 3.73 FIP across 14.1 innings, which, for a rookie, is nothing to sneeze at.
Those numbers say he’s been pretty good at limiting damage, even if there’s a bit of luck baked in.
Crow’s Developing Career and Last Start
Crow has eight strikeouts and just three walks this year, so he’s shown he can keep hitters guessing and isn’t giving away too many free bases.
In his last start, he gave up four runs (only two earned) on four hits over four innings. He managed one strikeout and two walks, and the Brewers pulled out a close 5-4 win over the Astros.
If you’re following the Giants from Mill Valley or even out in Novato, you know the drill—it’s always a challenge to face a young pitcher with something to prove.
Game Details and How to Tune In From Marin
The game kicks off at 11:10 a.m. Pacific Time. That’s a pretty ideal mid-morning slot for Marin folks who love a good baseball game.
All the action goes down at American Family Field in Milwaukee. If you’re not making the trek out to the Midwest—let’s be honest, most of us aren’t—you can still catch every moment.
Regional broadcasts will air on NBC Sports Bay Area. So whether you’re lounging in your San Rafael living room or grabbing coffee in San Anselmo, you won’t miss a pitch.
Prefer radio? Tune in to KNBR 680 AM/104.5 FM, a classic for local sports fans, or try KSFN 1510 AM.
Honestly, I’d suggest picking up a pastry from a Corte Madera bakery, settling in, and rooting for the Giants as they wrap up the series. Maybe we’ll see a strong finish and bring a win back home to the Bay Area!
