Padres Seek to Close Out Tight Games

San Diego has now dropped three of its last four games — all by one run — despite showing resilience late in contests. Saturday’s rally was sparked by Luis Arraez, who delivered a two-run game-tying double in the ninth and extended his streak to 53 consecutive plate appearances without striking out.

“You’ve got to be ready for it. You’ve just got to keep looking into it and find a way to be better every single time,” Padres rookie David Morgan said after allowing the game-ending homer on his first pitch.

Ryan Bergert (1-0, 2.00 ERA) will make his second MLB start after tossing five innings of two-run ball in a no-decision against San Francisco last week. He had previously appeared in four games out of the bullpen.

Meanwhile, Manny Machado continues to anchor the Padres’ lineup. The veteran slugger had two more hits Saturday and is batting .356 with six homers and 12 RBIs over his last 15 games.

Brewers Riding Hot Stretch

The Brewers, winners of 10 of their last 12 games, showed grit Saturday after being shut out in the series opener. Milwaukee broke a 15-inning scoreless streak and rallied late behind Christian Yelich — who drew three walks — and timely hits.

Freddy Peralta (5-4, 2.92 ERA) will get the start for Milwaukee. Though he hasn’t won in his last three outings, Peralta has allowed two earned runs or fewer in nine of his 13 starts. Opponents are hitting just .216 against him.

“Other than that one pitch, he had a great night,” Brewers manager Pat Murphy said after Peralta’s last start, a 4-2 loss to Cincinnati.

Peralta owns a 2-1 record with a 3.94 ERA in five career outings vs. the Padres.

With both teams showing fight and Milwaukee looking to stay hot, Sunday’s finale offers solid value for those tracking MLB Picks and Baseball Predictions.
