07/05/2008 - (Baseball Betting) - Jake Peavy tries for his first win in four starts this evening when the San Diego Padres continue their three-game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field.
Peavy was tagged with the loss on Sunday against Seattle, as the Mariners reached him for three runs and 10 hits in six innings, dropping the NL's defending Cy Young Award winner to 5-5 on the year, while raising his earned run average to 2.90.
Over his last three starts Peavy has not given up more than three earned runs, but has no wins to show for it, going 0-2 over that span.
Peavy lost to the D'Backs back on April 27 and is 10-10 in his career against them with a 4.98 ERA in 23 starts.
Arizona will counter with right-hander Doug Davis, who is 3-3 with a 3.79 ERA. Davis picked up his first win in seven starts on Monday against Milwaukee, as he allowed three runs and five hits in 5 2/3 innings.
Davis has faced the Padres 11 times (10 starts) and is 6-2 against them with a 3.36 ERA.
In the opener of this set on Friday, Cha Seung Baek allowed just two hits over six shutout innings, as the San Diego rolled to a 5-1 win.
Baek (2-3) carried a no-hitter into the sixth while striking out seven and walking one for the Padres, who won for just the second time in their last 12 games.
Kevin Kouzmanoff went 2-for-5 with a run batted in, while Adrian Gonzalez picked up his 69th RBI of the season.
Chad Tracy drove in the only run for the Diamondbacks, who have lost three of their last four.
Dan Haren (8-5) held the Padres to two runs on seven hits in seven innings -- fanning seven while walking just one -- but took the loss.
Arizona has won four of its seven matchups with the Padres this season.

How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.
