00:00We have one other afternoon game that I'll give you now in case we don't get to circle back

00:04before they start at the top of the next hour, and that is the Cubs and the Padres

00:09at Petco this afternoon. Of course, the Padres lost their first game at home last night to the

00:15Cubs 2-1 in 10 innings. It'll be Nick Pavetta and Matthew Boyd going this afternoon, minus 115

00:23for the Friars, minus 105 for the Cubs with a 7.5. Yeah, they've already cracked the egg.

00:30They finally lost the game at home, so you wonder if Oil Can Boyd can get it done today

00:37for the Cubs at Petco and steal that series. I think he's got a shot, right? I mean, both

00:46of these guys have been about the same, right? Same ERAs, almost identical, right? I think

00:52they are, and then I think Pavetta has won one more game. They're tough to beat in that

00:58ballpark. I'll give you that. When you go 11-0 and then you finally lose a game, and the

01:02Cubs did it with Imanaga last night. Let's see. What do you think? You think Boyd can beat

01:07him? I like the Padres this afternoon. I think the Padres will take the series against them

01:14with Pavetta going. Although Pavetta, he's been very good, but at any moment, he can start

01:20giving up some long balls. I'll take a shot with Boyd. I want the Friars to win, but I'll

01:25bet on Oil Can. Let's go.
