Padres vs Mariners: Streak on the Line

0:00On April 17th, the San Diego Padres are straight fire right now, the hottest squad in Major League Baseball with 10 wins in their last 11 games, and a 12 and 6 record. They smacked the Seattle Mariners 4-1 in the opener, then pulled off a wild comeback from 6 runs down, including 4 in the 9th for A. Walkoff win on Wednesday, a sweet tonight would make it 8 straight victories in this Better Cup series. Meanwhile, the Mariners came in hot with four wins, but now risk a three-game slide at 8-11. On the mound, Walker-Bueller starts for the Padres in his fourth outing, bouncing back with six shut-out innings last time after a rough start, sitting. At a 4.97 ERA, over 12.2 innings, they need him sharp with Nick Povetta sidelined long-term. Across the diamond, Mariners ace Luis Castillo counters in his fourth start, but he's dipped each time, capped by seven runs in 3.1. Innings against Houston for a 6.92 ERA over 13 innings.

1:00He's had success at Peckel Park, though, 3.78 ERA in 16.2 career innings there. Line up wise, Fernando Tati's junior returns to the two spot-in right after a rest day with Jackson, Maryland center, many Machado cleanup at third. And Zander Bogarts at short, catcher Luis Camposano pairs with Bueller, as Freddie Furman sits after taking a foul tip to the mask, might mean a triple-A call-up if he's out. First pitch is 5.40 p.m. Pacific tonight on Padres.tv, MLB app, MLB network, or local cable like Cox Channel 83. Catch it on 97.3, the fan or XEMO 860 AM.
