The surging San Diego Padres open their road trip against the Arizona Diamondbacks in a pivotal matchup of division foes on Monday.
Winners of three consecutive series, the San Diego Padres begin a four-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday in a crucial series between National League West foes. They are jockeying for playoff positioning with 50 games remaining in the regular season. The Diamondbacks return home to Chase Field following a 5-4 road trip, picking up series wins against Pittsburgh and Cleveland as they send right-hander Brandon Pfaadt (5-1, 4.00 ERA) to the mound off a stellar July that saw the 27-year-old Louisville, Kentucky native go 4-0 with a 1.88 ERA in his last five starts. The Padres will counter with veteran righty Michael King (6-7, 3.38 ERA), who is winless in his last three outings despite allowing a combined six earned runs in that span.

After seeing his four-game hit streak end on Sunday, Padres right fielder Fernando Tatis Jr. leads the team with his .283 batting average, the highest since his rookie campaign when he hit .317 in 2019. Tatis, now in his eighth season in San Diego, has seen a sharp decline in his power numbers this season, hitting just eight home runs through 110 games after hitting 21 or more five times in the previous six seasons. He is also slugging a career low .399, a full 100 points below his career average.
Diamondbacks veteran second baseman Ketel Marte leads the team with 19 home runs and 62 RBIs this season, marking his sixth consecutive campaign with at least 10 homers and 50 runs batted in. Marte, now in his 12th season in Major League Baseball, is four at bats away from 5,000 and would become the 49th Dominican born player to achieve that mark.
