Result: Win
This is a 10* play on the St. Louis Cardinals.
These two teams have split the first two games of this series, but the Cards have all the momentum coming off an 11-2 win at PETCO yesterday. The Padres just don't score a lot of runs, and I think they'll be hard pressed to come back here in Game 3.
Mike Leake will toe the slab for St. Louis, and he's still in search of his first victory of the season. This figures to be a good spot for the right-hander, as he's pitched very well against the Padres, posting a 2.14 ERA in his last five starts against them. San Diego relies heavily on the bat of Matt Kemp, but the slugger is just 2-for-12 with five strikeouts lifetime versus Leake.
The Padres will hand the ball to Colin Rea, who has failed to impress so far this season. Rea (1-1, 5.51 ERA) allowed three runs on seven hits over five innings in a home win over the Pirates his last time out. His only career start versus the Cardinals wasn't pretty, getting torched for five runs on five hits over four innings in a loss.
The Cardinals are swinging hot bats, ranking second in the major leagues in runs scored behind the Cubs, who have played more games.
Take STL.
