The Phillies took two of three at home against the Giants last week and have a 3-1-1 series record against the Giants since 2017. However, they have won just two of seven games in San Francisco in that span and were swept in their last visit to San Francisco, managing just one run over the three-game set in June 2018.

Philadelphia has committed at least one error in each of its last seven games, combining for 10 total errors over that span. The Phillies are 38-20 (.655) this season when playing errorless, second best in the NL behind the Dodgers (.738); when committing at least 1 error, they are 21-35 (.375), fourth worst in the NL.

San Francisco was swept by the Nationals and has lost six of its last seven games, scoring 18 runs over the seven-game span, including three runs or fewer in five of the six losses. The Giants have been held to three runs or fewer 59 times this season, third-most in MLB; only the Marlins (66) and Tigers (64) have more such games.

Bryce Harper is hitting .344 with runners on base this season, fifth highest among NL hitters with at least 100 plate appearances. However, he is hitting just .173 with nobody on base - that .171 difference is the largest among all batting title qualifiers this season.

After posting a 5.79 ERA in his first three home starts, Madison Bumgarner has a 2.61 ERA in 10 home starts since May 1. He has a 2.67 ERA in four starts against the NL East this season, including a nine-inning, one-run outing against the Mets on July 18.

The Giants are scheduled to start two lefties (Madison Bumgarner, Connor Menez) in this series, while the Phillies have southpaw Drew Smyly slated for Friday's game. The Giants' .224 average against left-handed starters is the lowest in MLB, while the Phillies' .235 average is fifth-lowest in baseball.

Phillies visit Giants with aces headed to hill in Game 1

SAN FRANCISCO (AP)  For much of this week, Madison Bumgarner spent extra time throwing on flat ground as he tried to get his feel back after a forgettable outing at Coors Field.
He sure had some of his best stuff this time.
