San Diego is 35-41 on the road and 6-4 in its last 10 games. The Padres are tied 20th in runs scored, eighth in batting average, ninth in on-base percentage, and 25th in slugging percentage. They are ranked third in ERA.
Manny Machado leads the team in home runs and RBIs. In Game 1, he only had one hit. The Padres bats cooled off fast from the Rockies series and they will definitely look for a better start in Game 2. On the mound for San Diego is Nick Pivetta, who is 13-5, with a 2.73 ERA. He has 19 quality starts this season and is coming off of a shutout against the Cincinnati Reds.
New York is 47-29 at home and 2-8 in its last 10 games. The Mets are 11th in runs scored, 12th in batting average, sixth in on-base percentage, and eighth in slugging percentage. They are ranked 16th in ERA.
Pete Alonso leads the team in batting average and RBIs. In Game 1, he had two hits, including a home run and an RBI. New York has won two games in a row and the offense is trending up again. On the mound for the Mets is David Peterson, who is 9-5, with a 3.77 ERA. He has 14 quality starts this season, but New York has lost three of his last four outings.
Best Bet: Under
The Padres will attempt to improve their start in Game 2, and Pivetta should be able to slow down the Mets offense. The Mets are finally on a small winning streak, and Peterson will aim to give them a good game. Both clubs will want to tighten things up as they compete for postseason seeds.
