The Padres offense got off to a fast start, scoring four runs in the first and adding their final run in the 2nd. On the other side, the Rockies got on the board with two runs in the 6th.</p>

<p>Matt Waldron pitched well for the Padres in this one, going six innings and giving up just one run. He finished the game with five strikeouts but issued three walks. Ty Blach struggled on the mound for the Rockies, giving up four earned runs in five innings of work.</p><h3>Padres Records & Stats</h3><p>San Diego is 14-13 overall and is 2nd in the NL West, 1.5 games behind the Dodgers. The Padres are on the road today, and they are 8-5 on the road this season. San Diego's overall series record is 4-4-1, and they have won two straight series on the road.</p>

<p>So far, the Padres have gone 9-6 when favored and 5-7 as the underdog. They just won two of three games vs. the Rockies and lost two of three in their most recent series vs. the Blue Jays. At home, the Padres are just 6-8.</p><p>When the Padres are on the road, they have been a solid bet on the run line, going 11-2. They have an average run margin of +1.2 runs per game when playing away from Petco Park. Their overall run line record is 15-12, but they have been especially profitable on the run line when they are the underdog, going 8-4.</p><p>San Diego's games have averaged 9.3 runs per game this season, but the over/under line for today's game against the Rockies is set at 10.5 runs. The Padres have played 26 games this season, and only two of them have had over/under lines of 10.5 runs. In those two games, the under has hit both times. Overall, the Padres have hit the under in 13 of their 26 games this season.</p><p>Randy Vásquez and the Padres are on the road to take on the Rockies. Vásquez is coming off a home start against the Blue Jays, where he took the loss, but did strike out 3 batters in 5 innings of work.</p><p>As a team, the Padres are averaging 4.8 runs per game, which is 9th in the league. They have been even better on the road this season, averaging 4.9 runs per contest. Overall, they are 7th in home runs and have the league's 6th best team batting average at .256.

At home, they are 4-8 compared to 2-11 on the road.</p><p>When betting on the Rockies' run line this season, it's been a good idea to take the underdog. They have covered the run line in 11 of 14 games as the underdog, but they have yet to cover the run line in any of the games in which they were the favorite. Their overall run line record is 11-14, and they have been outscored by an average of 2.3 runs per game this season.</p><p>Colorado's over/under record for the season is 12-13.

The combined run average in their games this season is 9.5 runs per game.</p><p>Through his first 4 starts of the season, Dakota Hudson is still looking for his first win. He has taken a loss in each of his first 4 outings, including his most recent start, where he went 4 innings and gave up 4 runs on 5 hits. He has yet to have a start where he hasn't given up a home run, as he has given up a total of 3 homers on the year.</p><p>So far this season, the Rockies offense is averaging just 3.6 runs per game, which is 26th in the league. They have been even worse on the road, averaging only 3.5 runs per contest. As a team, the Rockies are batting .240, which is 12th in the league, but their on-base percentage and slugging percentage are both near the bottom of the league.</p>
