On the other hand, the Seattle Mariners have struggled recently, losing five of their last seven matchups. The Giants have shown strength in their offensive performance, boasting a .235 batting average against right-handed pitchers. Additionally, despite Woo's solid performance in his last outing, he has struggled against the Giants in previous starts.
