Padres look to continue home dominance against the Diamondbacks
Arizona (14-10) at San Diego (11-13), 4:05 pm EDT
SAN DIEGO (Ticker) -- The
San Diego Padres
seek their 11th straight home victory over the
Arizona Diamondbacks
on Sunday.
San Diego, which was swept at Phoenix last weekend, got a solo home run from
Sean Burroughs
- his first in 230 at-bats and 11th of his career - in a 2-0 victory over Arizona on Saturday.
Brian Lawrence
rebounded from his shortest career start by holding the Diamondbacks to just two hits in eight innings and
Trevor Hoffman
picked up his 397th save.
Woody Williams
(2-1, 4.85 ERA) will make his sixth start of the season for the Padres. He allowed three runs and eight hits in six innings against the
San Francisco Giants
on Monday.
Arizona counters with
Javier Vazquez
(2-2, 6.11), who came to the Diamondbacks from the
New York Yankees
in the deal for
Randy Johnson
. He has won his last two outings, including a two-run, five-hit performance in eight innings against the
Los Angeles Dodgers
on Monday.
The Diamondbacks, who trail the Dodgers by 1 1/2 games in the National League West, have not scored in their last 15 innings.
