San Diego Padres vs Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction

Instead of looking at a side, I’m rolling with the over. The Diamondbacks have caught fire offensively this week, and they’re facing Randy Vasquez, who has been hittable all year, especially at home where he’s allowing over a .300 batting average. The Padres are playing some of their best ball lately, and they’re going up against Slade Cecconi, who has a near 6 ERA on the season and was tagged in the month of June. The fireworks don’t stop on Thursday. Give me the over 8.5 runs in Game 1 between the Diamondbacks and Padres.
