San Diego is in the second NL wild-card spot and hungry to end a slide after getting swept at the defending champs. Yu Darvish is on the mound with a stellar 174:33 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 146 innings, holding batters to a .222 average. Darvish is 10-1 on the road against teams with a winning percentage of .620 or better. San Francisco is home but this is a difficult situational spot, coming off a six-game road trip that ended yesterday at Chicago. Short on starters, they'll throw reliever Dominic Leone to the mound. And he walks a lot of batters (20 in 42-plus innings), making this an excellent spot for the visitors. Play San Diego.
