The Padres and Giants finish off their season series tonight with three games at AT&T Park starting tonight.
The Giants have gotten the best of the Father's this year winning 10 of their 16 match-ups, and would do themselves a huge favor if they were to at the very least win the series. San Diego's been a rough out of late though winning a number of games late in the game or in extra innings.
However, Jake Peavy has not been as good on the road as he has been at home. He's 3-6 with a 5.02 ERA as the visiting hurler, and he's given up 61 hits in as many innings pitched. The Giants have seen him four times this season and have gone 2-2 overall. They smashed him the last time he visited the bay for 9 hits and 7 earned runs in only 4 innings of work. They won't be intimidated by him tonight whatsoever regardless of the effort he put forth in his last start. Matt Cain's currently in the midst of a four game winning streak, and he's only given up 1 earned run during that stretch. He's faced the Padres three times this year, and the Giants won two of those games.
With so much riding on the line in this series, look for the home team to get off to the fast start behind one of MLB's hottest young pitchers.
