Game Preview

Chris Paddack will face some familiar figures when the Minnesota Twins and San Francisco Giants conclude the first half of the season in Northern California on Sunday.

The teams have each won a game in the series thus far.

Paddack, now with Minnesota, spent his first three MLB seasons (2019-21) with the San Diego Padres, frequently facing the Giants, a division rival. Across seven matchups, his record stands at 1-1 with a 3.82 ERA against San Francisco.

During his third year at San Diego, Paddack shared the rotation with Blake Snell, who now pitches for the Giants and will start opposite Paddack on Sunday. That year, Snell recorded a 7-6 record with a 4.20 ERA, while Paddack went 7-7 with a 5.07 ERA. The Padres missed the playoffs, resulting in the dismissal of manager Jayce Tingler. Following an offseason change, Paddack was traded to the Twins in a significant trade involving Taylor Rogers, who moved to the Padres and is currently a reliever for the Giants, managed by Bob Melvin.

Paddack (5-3, 5.18 ERA) has struggled to secure a win recently, despite facing teams like the Oakland Athletics and Chicago White Sox, yielding 10 runs over 12 innings in his last three starts without a decision.

Blake Snell (0-3, 7.85 ERA), recently back from a groin injury, pitched five scoreless innings in a narrow 4-3 victory against the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday, though he didn’t receive a decision. This was his first appearance since June 2.
