Game Thread: Chris vs Chris

MLB: San Diego Padres at Pittsburgh Pirates Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports

Chris Archer duels with Chris Paddack today in PNC Park for game two of the weekend series with the Padres. It was a pitcher’s duel last night, with Pittsburgh taking game one by edging San Diego 2-1.

Runs may come easily today, as Archer has just one quality start in his last nine outings and Paddack has allowed 12 earned runs in his last three starts.

First pitch is at 4:05 p.m.
