SAN FRANCISCO ¡ª The San Diego Padres will put a franchise-record streak on
the line with an overworked bullpen Sunday afternoon when they wrap up a
four-game series against the San Francisco Giants.
The Padres will be looking to split the series in a game matching rookie
right-handers Eric Lauer (3-4, 5.47 ERA) of the Padres against Dereck Rodriguez
(2-1, 4.56) of the Giants.
Lauer has pitched well in his last two starts, allowing three runs in 11 2/3
innings J'Marcus
Webb Jersey , but he has failed to pitch into the seventh inning in
either, which could become an issue Sunday.
The Padres were forced to turn Saturday¡¯s 5-3 loss to the Giants into a
bullpen affair after scheduled starter Jordan Lyles experienced tightness in his
right forearm during warmups.
Five regular members of the bullpen, including emergency starter Matt Strahm,
combined to throw 133 pitches, one day after Padres manager Andy Green used five
relievers, including two of the same guys, to secure a 6-2 victory.
Green admitted the rotating-relievers thing Ray Nitschke
Jersey , which included using three in the same inning Friday night
for the first time this season, has been a bit dizzying.
¡°It¡¯s more a matchup thing,¡± he explained of his three trips to the mound in
the same inning. ¡°It didn¡¯t necessarily work. We ended up giving up a run. I
liked the way it played up to that point.¡±
By allowing three, two and five runs in the first three games of the series,
the Padres extended their streak of allowing five or fewer runs on the road to
13 consecutive games.
Lauer worked five innings in an earlier start against the Giants this season,
allowing three runs. He did not get a decision in a game in which Green went to
the bullpen four times.
The 23-year-old survived a shaky start in the April 30 outing, allowing a
single to Gorkys Hernandez L. P.
Ladouceur Jersey , a triple to Andrew McCutchen and a double to
Buster Posey in the first three batters.
It was his only previous matchup with the Giants.
The Giants, meanwhile, have struggled out of the bullpen in the series after
Mark Melancon came on to complete Madison Bumgarner¡¯s shutout with a scoreless
ninth in Thursday¡¯s 3-0 victory.
San Francisco relievers have allowing five runs and six hits in 6 1/3 innings
in the last two games, and have proved especially vulnerable in the ninth
inning, giving up three insurance runs that padded San Diego¡¯s 6-2 victory
Friday, and letting the Padres back in the game with two runs in Saturday¡¯s 5-3
outcome.
The Giants are playing the series ¡ª and at least the next month ¡ª without
closer Hunter Strickland, who broke a finger on his pitching hand earlier in the
week.
Rodriguez will try to give the Giants¡¯ bullpen a break in the series finale.
But like Lauer Russell
Bodine Jersey , he has failed to give his club depth in his starts
this season, averaging 4 2/3 innings in his five outings.
He has posted a win and a no-decision in his last two starts despite allowing
five runs and 14 hits in 11 2/3 innings. Rodriguez has never faced the
Padres.
