San Diego at Oakland

Last place San Diego  is on the road where they've been an abysmal, 9-23. That's what happens when you have so little talent on offense, 29th in runs scored, 26th in on-base percentage and 30th in slugging. They hit .229 as a team. The Padres go with southpaw Clayton Richard, who is 1-4 with a 5.73 ERA on the road. The Padres are 15-38 in their last 53 road games and 3-9 in Richard's last 12 starts as an underdog. The Padres are also 1-12 in Richard's last 13 starts as an underdog of +110 to +150!  Oakland has home field and looks for the sweep while riding a five game winning streak. Bartolo Colon is on a nice roll, 2-1 his last three starts with a 3.15 ERA walking just six in 20 innings. The Athletics are 5-0 in their last five interleague games and a sizzling 21-8 in their last 29 interleague home games vs. a left-handed starter. And, when these teams meet, the Padres are 1-5 in the last six meetings, including 0-5 in the last five meetings in Oakland. Play the Oakland A's.
