On Thursday afternoon the Diamondbacks will send out Patrick Corbin in this one following a 7-4 victory over the Padres last night. The home team is also 11-1 in Corbin's starts this season.
Corbin has pitched well at times, picking up 56 strikeouts this season. He has a 3.34 career ERA when pitching against the Padres. Clayton Richard gets the nod in this game for the San Diego Padres. He is 4-6 on the year with a 4.36 ERA. He is 4-4 with a 4.76 ERA and 28 strikeouts in his last 8 appearances facing the Arizona Diamondbacks. It's going to be tough sledding for the Padres as Arizona has a 22-8 home record this season while San Diego is 10-21 on the road. We like the Diamondbacks to win this game.
