Money Line: -148.00 Padres (SDP) (Home)
Result: Loss
The Giants are coming into this game with a 69-73 record this season and they have been awful on the road all year at 29-41. They have not been playing well in their recent games as they have lost 5 of their last 6 games and their offense has been bad in those, scoring just 4 runs total in their last 2 games. They are going up against a Padres team that is 81-62 this season and is fighting to keep their Wild Card spot right now, but also fighting to win the division since they are only 4 games behind the Dodgers now. They have been playing well recently as they have won 4 of their last 5 games and their offense has scored at least 5 runs in 2 of their last 3 games. Dylan Cease is starting for the Padres in this game and he is 12-10 with a 3.62 ERA this season. He allowed 3 earned runs in his last start and has been allowing around 3 runs in each of his last 5 starts, but he has been much better at home. He allowed 2 earned runs in his last home starts and has allowed 2 earned runs or less in each of his last 3 as well as 4 of his last 5 home starts. He has not been pitching lights out recently but he has been consistent all season and has also played a lot on the road over the last month so this is a good opportunity for him to bounce back with a better start at home where he has been better all season. Logan Webb is starting for the Giants in this game and he is 11-9 with a 3.43 ERA this season. He has been awful in his last 2 starts as he has allowed at least 4 earned runs in each and has allowed 10 earned runs total in those 2 starts. He has also been worse on the road, allowing 4 earned runs in 3 of his last 4 road starts. The Padres have been playing much better recently as they are pushing to put some pressure on the Dodgers in the NL West. The Padres will win this game at home.
