San Diego is a long way from home, playing its third straight road game of a 10-game trek. The offense is last in baseball in runs and on-base percentage. 33-year-old Clayton Richard (5-12, 5.40 ERA) gets the start, but has yielded 23 earned runs over 23+ innings in his last four starts, all losses. Pittsburgh plays its seventh straight home contest here. And San Diego is 46-86 in day games while the Pirates are 58-35 against N.L. West opponents, so back the home team. Play Pittsburgh.
