The San Diego Padres entered their series with the Arizona Diamondbacks on a 2-13 run, the worst mark in the NL in that span, and will look to Blake Snell to fix his road woes on Tuesday.
Snell has some of the largest home and road splits in the majors. His ERA is 7.01 ERA on the road, 2.49 ERA at home. He has allowed six home runs with a .169 opponents’ batting average at home, compared to 10 home runs with a .301 OBA on the road.
Diamondbacks starter Zac Gallen is the opposite, having posted a better ERA on the road (4.13) than at home (4.58). Gallen is 0-5 in eight home starts with 1.9 home runs and 3.9 walks per nine innings. Opponents have scored at least four runs in all 16 nine-inning games Gallen has started. And with the Diamondbacks entered the series having scored at least four runs in nine of their last 12 games, the desert will have runs aplenty on Tuesday.
The Play: Padres-Diamondbacks total, Over 8.5 runs
