The San Francisco Giants are playing their home opener against the Seattle Mariners at Oracle Park, with Justin Verlander on the mound. Verlander, who struggled with a 5.48 ERA during the 2024 season, seeks to enhance his performance after a lackluster first start. He faces Mariners' Luis F. Castillo, a newcomer with limited experience in the MLB but with potential for a surprise performance. The Mariners’ previous encounters with Verlander have not yielded fruitful results, setting an uncertain tone for the matchup.
"As the Giants return to Oracle Park for their home opener, they are hopeful for a rebound performance from Justin Verlander against the Mariners."
"Despite a lackluster 2024 season, Verlander aims to improve on his earlier performance this year against a Mariners lineup not known for success against him."
