Game Preview
The San Diego Padres, on a hot streak with 18 wins in their last 21 games, are closing in on the National League West crown or a prime wild-card spot. They aim to secure a series sweep against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday, hoping for more straightforward victories.
Since their 6-0 win over the Pirates on August 6, the Padres have triumphed in six of seven games, though many were close calls, with three going into extra innings. This has put a strain on their bullpen, with key relievers like Robert Suarez and Tanner Scott seeing heavy usage.
Padres starter Michael King, who earned a win with 10 strikeouts in six innings on Tuesday, emphasized the importance of pitching depth for playoff success.
Meanwhile, the Pirates, mired in a nine-game losing streak, are struggling to secure wins. Their recent loss, a 3-0 defeat, saw them outhit the Padres but fail to capitalize with runners in scoring position, continuing a trend of missed opportunities.
Pittsburgh’s Mitch Keller (10-6, 3.56 ERA) will look to rebound from a tough outing against the Dodgers. He’s had mixed results against San Diego in his career. On the other hand, Padres’ Martin Perez (2-5, 4.78 ERA), who was traded from Pittsburgh, is set to make his third start for San Diego. He’s performed well since joining the Padres and remains focused on contributing positively to his new team.
