San Francisco at San Diego

The Padres surprised last year, and are off quick at 2-1 to open the 2011 season. This team may be limited on offense, but their pitching keeps them in most games, and so far that has rung true to start the season. The Padres’ staff has allowed just 8 runs in three games. The Giants are off to a slow 1-3 start, and simply haven't played well on the road for quite some time. San Diego capitalizes on teams at less than .400 where they have put up a 21-8 mark over their last 29 games. They have also been at their best at home vs. left-hand pitching at 12-5 in their last 17. San Diego gets the call.
