Game Thread: 8/12 Padres @ Dodgers

A win tonight would secure the series for the Padres (11-7) over the Dodgers (11-7) and push San Diego into sole possession of second place in the NL West. Each team has essentially flipped the script from their first series, with the San Diego bats looking to be the hotter of the two teams this time around.

Your starting pitcher for the Padres tonight is Zach Davies (2-1). He’ll be facing off against Tony Gonsolin (0-0) in his first start of the 2020 season.

Lets get. This. Thing. Done. Go Padres!

Starting Lineup:

Cronenworth replaces Hosmer at first as the veteran continues to be brought along slowly and Garcia gets the nod at DH. It’s also Mejia’s turn to start behind the plate and Profar is back at second.
