Bet Tonight’s Padres vs. Giants Game
SAN DIEGO: The Padres have struggled of late, dropping nine of 13 overall and 36 of 53 on the road. They’re also 17-36 in their last 53 games versus a team that owns a winning record and are 14-32 in their last 46 road games versus an opponent that has a winning record at home.
SAN FRANCISCO: The Giants haven’t been a great bet with Samardzija on the hill, dropping seven of his last 10 starts and four of his last five starts after scoring five runs or more in their previous game. That said, San Francisco has been a solid play when Samardzija faces a National League West opponent, posting a 6-2 record over his last eight outings against the division.
