SAN DIEGO — San Diego Padres right-hander Jhoulys Chacin isn’t unlike most people: He likes this city.
Good thing his start against the Colorado Rockies on Saturday is in San Diego.
“It’s one of those things now where there’s enough time where you expect him to pitch really good at home,” Padres manager Andy Green said.
And really bad, Green might add, on the road.
Chacin (4-4, 5.77) has been perfect at home. He’s won both of his decisions and has an ERA of .0.67.
But take Chacin, who faces the Rockies’ Tyler Chatwood, out of San Diego and his wheels go wobbly: a 2-4 record and 10.
