The San Diego Padres own the dubious distinction of being the worst team in the NL, as they enter tonight's game with a record of 13-24. It is hard to win games when your team is batting .223 and through 37 games your team is at a major league low 14 home runs. To put how inept that is in perspective, the next worse NL team has hit 24 homers. What has kept them in a lot of games is a rotation that has a combined 3.40 ERA, while the Dodgers rank No. 2 in baseball coming in, so runs will be at a premium in this one. After an explosive start Matt Kemp is no longer hitting, and has not homered in 11 games, driving in just 3 runs, so the Dodgers’ offense has been slowed. Clayton Richard has been great pitching at home as a dog, and with no offense that has led to a 9-0-2 mark for the Padres behind him as a home dog. Play the UNDER.
