The San Diego Padres (21-11) head into the Bronx on Monday night aiming to gain the upper hand in their series against the New York Yankees (19-14) at Yankee Stadium.
San Diego has found its footing again after dropping a series to Tampa Bay, bouncing back with back-to-back series wins over the Giants and Pirates. Now sitting second in the NL West, just a game and a half behind the Dodgers, the Padres are looking to close that gap and keep the pressure on with a win in Monday's opener.
The Yankees, meanwhile, are looking to reverse a rough patch. They’ve dropped three of their last five contests but still cling to the top spot in the AL East, holding a two-game edge over the Red Sox. A victory over a strong Padres squad would be a much-needed step in regaining momentum and stretching their division lead.
