Pirates, Padres Under
Game Time: 9/24/2006 4:05:00 PM
With a pair of solid arms on the hill today in San Diego, look for the Pirates and Padres to play a low-scoring affair.
Zach Duke, the Pirates' starting pitcher here tonight against the San Diego Padres, is currently in the best form of his current campaign, and has allowed only five earned runs in his last four starts spanning 30 innings.
His pitching opponent, Jake Peavy, is always capable of pitching a top notch performance and has only allowed six ERs runs in his last five home starts in 35 plus innings of stellar work. Look for and expect a very low scoring pitching duel in the pitcher friendly environment of Petco Park.
