The Rangers will look to even the series, after dropping Game 1, 3-2. The Rangers are 17-26 on the road this season, and are 25th in runs scored, and first in ERA at 3.23. Jack Leiter gets the start for the Ranger, he is 4-5 with a 4.29 ERA in 14 starts. The Padres are 26-14 at home this season. The Padres offense is just 23rd in runs scored, but have been getting it done consistently on the mound. Stephen Kolek will make the start for the Padres. He is 3-3 with a 3.73 ERA in 11 starts. These teams have met 10 times going back to 2021 with the Padres winning nine of them. The Padres have won seven of their last 12 games. The Rangers have won five of their last nine. Texas has lost six straight games that Leiter has started and they are 4-11 when Leiter has started. The Padres have lost five straight games that Kolek has started. The Rangers have been struggling at the plate all season and have not hit national League pitchers this season. This will be another close, low scoring game, but I like the Padres bats against Leiter to do a little more damage.
