Bet Tonight’s Padres vs. Giants Game
SAN DIEGO: The Padres have been a bad bet when coming off a win and after beating the Giants 4-0 last night, San Diego is still 21-46 in its last 67 games following a victory. The Padres are also still just 9-23 in their last 32 road games, are 17-36 in their last 53 road games versus a team with a winning record, and 16-35 in their last 51 road games versus a right-handed starter.
SAN FRANCISCO: The Giants are just 1-6 in their last seven games versus a left-handed starter, are 1-4 in Suarez’s last five starts and have dropped five of six when playing on Tuesday. That said, they’re 8-1 in their last nine home games versus a left-handed starter and are 8-1 in their last nine games when their opponent allows two runs or less in its previous game, as the Padres did last night in their 4-0 shutout.

OUR PICK: The Padres are now 4-0 in their last four games versus the Giants and despite their issues with left-handers, they’re worth a flier tonight because of Richard. San Diego is 7-1 in Richard’s last eight starts following a quality start in his last appearance, is 4-1 in his last five starts versus National League West opponents, and is 5-2 in his last seven starts overall.
