The San Diego Padres had their 3-game skid snapped last night only to blow it in the ninth, falling to the Milwaukee Brewers, 5-4, at American Family Field. Tonight they will have a chance to redeem themselves when they play the second game of their 4-game set with the Brewers. Two of the best in the Majors will oppose each other, with Joe Musgrove getting the nod for the Padres and Corbin Burnes for the Brewers. The reigning NL Cy Young winner Burnes comes it at 3-2 with a 1.95 ERA and a 0.82 WHIP. Musgrove is a little better. He is a perfect 5-0 with an ERA of only 1.86 and a 0.98 WHIP. This is a golden opportunity for the Friars to get back on track. They have their ace on the hill and he will be facing a banged up Brewers team. Milwaukee will be without catcher Omar Narváez and SS Willy Adames, just to name a few. Consider the underdog Friars tonight.
TONIGHT’S PICK: SAN DIEGO PADRES
