Result: Loss
#912 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* San Diego Padres -1.5 -115 on Run Line over Arizona, Sunday at 4:10 PM ET - The DBacks snapped their free fall with a rare win last night. Even with that victory, they have now won just 7 of their last 50 games and they’ve lost 20 of 22 games overall! Arizona sends Zac Gallen to the mound and we expect his recent road struggles to resume. He is off a solid home outing but gave up 4 earned runs in less than 3 innings in his last road outing. Also, Gallen has averaged only 4 and 2 / 3 innings per start on the season. That should give the DBacks poor bullpen plenty of work which isn’t a good thing. The Arizona relievers have allowed 333 hits and 48 homers this season, both near the very top in MLB and those, of course, are categories teams do not want to be leaders in! Meanwhile the Padres will start Yu Darvish who is 7-2 on the season and San Diego is 12-3 in his starts this season! Darvish has an ERA of just 2.50 in his 15 starts this season! The Padres had won 8 straight games prior to last night's ugly loss and 36 of their 46 wins this season were by at least 2 runs. Also, 17 of Arizona’s last 23 losses have come by at least 2 runs and considering the big starting pitching edge and bullpen edge (Padres 2nd in MLB with 2.85 ERA) as well, we’ll back the San Diego Padres on the run line Sunday afternoon.
