Nick Pivetta will help lead the visiting Padres to a win over the Cardinals on Friday night, Stitches predicts.

Hopping over to the other side, San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado has also dominated Cardinals starter Sonny Gray. He’s 11-for-32 with two doubles and a pair of home runs. Machado is having a nice season overall, hitting .285 with 18 long balls and 61 RBI.

The Padres have dropped three consecutive games, losing two straight and the series to the Marlins, then the opener to the Cardinals. St. Louis won 9-7 as Willson Contreras and Brendan Donovan hit three-run homers in a six-run second inning to pull ahead.
