Giants 5, Cubs 1: Webb Sharp Again to Avoid Series Sweep

The lead

June 14, 2026 - San Francisco - Logan Webb worked eight innings with 28 pitching FP in AthX Engine scoring, Matt Chapman homered and drove in two runs with 10 hitting FP, and the San Francisco Giants beat the Chicago Cubs 5-1 to avoid a series sweep, per the Associated Press recap on CBS Sports.

San Francisco finished with 12 team FP on the Sunday card.

How the game turned

Webb and Caleb Kilian combined on a seven-hitter without a walk from the Giants staff. Chapman followed Drew Gilbert's RBI double with his seventh homer of the season in the fifth to build a lead Chicago could not erase.

Pete Crow-Armstrong had two hits for the Cubs, who scored an unearned run in the eighth. Bryce Eldridge's RBI single in the seventh extended San Francisco's cushion.

Pitching and matchup notes

Webb (4-4) matched his season high with seven strikeouts and pitched out of jams with runners in scoring position in three of the first five innings. He has allowed one run or fewer in each of his past three starts while working at least seven innings.

Cubs reliever Colin Rea (5-5) allowed four runs in 4⅔ innings after following opener Ryan Rolison.

Bats that changed the board

Webb's 28 FP paced the entire Sunday slate in AthX Engine pitching scoring. Chapman's 10 FP night led the Giants' offense in a game where pitching carried most of the daily value.

AthX Engine fantasy angle

AthX Engine rewards deep starts with minimal damage. Webb's third straight dominant outing registers at the top of the pitching board even in a modest run-support game, separate from dynamic pricing.

What comes next

The Giants opened a road series at Atlanta on Tuesday, per the MLB schedule.
