Padres vs Pirates Playoff Push | Pittsburgh Pirates News

Padres and Pirates square off again tonight at Petco Park after a nail-biting extra-innings win for Pittsburgh that snapped San Diego’s three-game win streak. With the Padres at 71-61 and the Pirates at 64-69, the pitching duel between Michael King and Paul Skenes could decide the night — both have shown flashes but lately, inconsistency has crept in. Pittsburgh’s offense, highlighted by Esmerlyn Valdez’s homer, proved dangerous, while San Diego’s bats struggled. The game is projected as a close one, with San Diego slight favorites at -115 and the over-under at 7.5. Kickoff is at 9:40 PM ET — catch it on SportsNet PT or stream on Fubo.
