Blake Snell lasted only 3.2 innings in his second start of the season on Wednesday, allowing three hits, three walks and three earned runs in a 3-0 Padres loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Milwaukee Has Been Streaky So Far In 2022

The Brewers dropped their second straight game in a 3-2 loss to the Padres on Monday one day after losing their series finale against the Washington Nationals 8-2 as -250 home favorites. Milwaukee was 5-1 prior to those two losses, 2-5 in the seven games before that run, and 9-1 in the 10 previous games.

Bettors taking Milwaukee as their Brewers vs Padres prediction will be hoping that these last two losses aren’t the start of a new streak in the wrong direction. Milwaukee has seen its lead in the NL Central over the St. Louis Cardinals drop to two games ahead of Tuesday’s action.

San Diego Has Thrived Due To Great Pitching

The Padres improved to 5-0 over their last five games and to 7-1 over their last eight with Monday’s 3-2 win over the Brewers. San Diego has allowed three runs or less in seven of those eight games, giving up an average of only 2.13 runs per game.

Through their first 42 games of the season, the Padres rank 10th best in the majors with a team ERA of 3.43. This has been a noticeable improvement over last season’s staff, which posted a team ERA of 4.10.

Padres: Keys To Victory

Manny Machado has been one of the most productive batters in the majors this season with a .365 batting average, eight home runs and 27 RBIs on the season.
