The Los Angeles Dodgers will try to make it two in a row against the San Diego Padres when they resume their series on Saturday at Dodger Stadium.
The Dodgers opened as -132 home favorites over the Padres for Game 2 after escaping with a 3-2 win over their division rivals on Friday. The Dodgers' bullpen, which has given up a 4.67 ERA in the last five games, stepped up big time, allowing the Padres to score one run in the final three innings. The Dodgers are tied with the Padres for the best record in the NL West at 69-53.
The Padres, who are averaging 5.7 runs per game in their last five games, could only score two runs in Game 1 after going 4 for 28 behind the plate. San Diego surrendered a total of three runs in the three-game series with the Giants. However, it took only one game for the Dodgers to score that many runs against the Padres’ vaunted pitching staff.

Our San Diego Padres vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
The Dodgers are sending in Blake Snell to start on Saturday. Snell has won 4 of his last 5 starts, holding an outstanding 1.80 ERA. LA is 8-2 in their last 10 games against San Diego, though they have only covered the spread four times in this 10-game spell.
The Padres will counter with their own ace Dylan Cease. Cease is 4-1 with a 3.12 ERA in his last five starts. Against the Dodgers, Cease is 1-2 in his last three starts against the team, giving up 3.0 earned runs in 4.1 innings pitched. Cease also had a nightmare of a start the last time he faced the Dodgers on June 16, in which he gave up six earned runs over five innings in a 3-6 loss.
Our betting prediction for the LA Dodgers vs. the San Diego Padres: the LA Dodgers will win.
