The San Diego Padres (51-54) are on a roll, winning 7 of their last 10 and they are 10-5 in the second half after finishing July 13-11. They took two out of three in Miami and now are in the last leg of their road trip.
They will face the Milwaukee Brewers (44-62) who have seen a few of their best players traded away. The now Carlos Gomez and Aramis Ramirez-less Brew Crew have lost 5 straight and were swept in four games at the hands of the Cubs. They are 20-33 at home, the worst record in the NL.
