img9:40 PM Eastern

San Diego has been streaky lately and hopes to start another good run after snapping a four-game skid with a 5-1 victory over the Giants last night. The Padres have won six of seven in the third game of a series, and they have won five of six against right-handed starters. San Francisco is hanging by a thread in the playoff race, and it has lost six of seven against NL West opponents. The Padres are 6-1-1 UNDER in their past eight games. The Giants are 6-3-1 UNDER their past 10 overall and 6-0-1 UNDER versus left-handed starters. San Francisco has lost eight of 10 overall, and the Padres have won 11 of 15 home games. The Giants have lost four straight after allowing at least five runs in their previous game. San Diego is 72-54 on the run line this season and 71-51 UNDER. Take the Padres on the run line and the UNDER.
