The Padres and Pirates kicked off a weekend series with San Diego earning their 20th win of the season. The Padres had a minor offensive lapse weeks ago, which was corrected, among other things, with the return of Arraez from his injury. The Venezuelan Padres first baseman went 3-for-5 with 3 RBIs in Friday's win at PNC Park.
In Game 1, the Padres went 14-for-38 to win 9-4 over the Pirates. It was a game the Padres had been favored by the betting teams at -135 odds. The game ended up being an OVER Game Total, just like eight of the last ten games between San Diego and Pittsburgh.
Randy Vazquez is certainly the weakest link in the Padres' starting rotation. He's 1-3 this season and has lost his last two starts. But he'll have a close pitching duel Saturday as Pirates pitcher Falter puts up similar numbers, with a higher ERA of 5.93.
