San Diego @ Milwaukee preview

Last Meeting ( May 13, 2016 ) San Diego 0, Milwaukee 1

Ryan Braun cooled down for a contest but it didn't prevent the Milwaukee Brewers from collecting a victory. Braun had a 12-game hitting streak snapped and will look to start a new one when the Brewers host the San Diego Padres on Saturday in the third contest of the four-game set.

Braun, who is batting .367, was hitless in three at-bats during Friday's 1-0 victory but is still batting .407 with two homers and 10 RBIs over his last 13 games. Milwaukee first baseman Chris Carter is 0-for-20 over the past six contests but drove in the lone run with a sacrifice fly to halt the Padres' season-long three-game winning streak. San Diego left fielder Matt Kemp is hitless in eight at-bats in the series and is just 3-for-35 with no extra-base hits over the past nine contests. Rookie Luis Perdomo will start for the Padres after right-hander Andrew Cashner (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day disabled list on Friday.

TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, FSN San Diego, FSN Wisconsin (Milwaukee)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Padres RH Luis Perdomo (1-0, 9.88 ERA) vs. Brewers RH Wily Peralta (2-4, 6.75)

The 23-year-old Perdomo will be making his first major-league start but did start 61 games in the minor leagues over the past five seasons in the St. Louis organization. He has been roughed up out of the bullpen for 26 hits in just 13 2/3 innings and opposing batters have a collective .413 average against him. The Padres acquired Perdomo from Colorado in the offseason after the Rockies selected him in the Rule 5 draft from the Cardinals.

Peralta lost to the Miami Marlins in his last outing when he gave up two runs and 10 hits in six innings. He was the club's opening day starter but has struggled most of the season with a 1.94 WHIP and a .372 batting average against. Peralta is 1-1 with a 7.45 ERA in two career starts against San Diego and has struggled to retire Jon Jay (10-for-30).

WALK-OFFS

1. Padres 1B Wil Myers, who typically bats second in front of Kemp, is just 5-for-39 over the past 10 games.

2. Milwaukee SS Jonathan Villar reached base three times on Friday and is 8-for-19 during a five-game hitting streak.

3. San Diego C Derek Norris (wrist) sat out Friday's game after being hit by a pitch one day earlier.

PREDICTION: Brewers 11, Padres 7
