SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Padres’ Jhoulys Chacin is at home near the San Diego Bay. That could present a challenge for the Cincinnati Reds.
The teams cap their three-game series with an afternoon game on Wednesday. The key for Chacin is the game is at Petco Park and not at the Great American Ballpark.
Chacin (5-5, 5.35) is pitching well in San Diego. His ERA of 1.58 at Petco Park is the second-lowest home ERA among major league starters, with only the Houston Astros’ Dallas Keuchel (1.04) being a tad better.
The right-hander won his last time out, at Petco Park.
