Can San Diego maintain their division lead as they face their SoCal nemesis? The upcoming series promises high stakes and intense competition.

Michael King's injury deals a blow to the Padres' pitching staff, but the team's resilience shines through. Jake Garegnani of CBS 8 Sports San Diego joins the show to weigh in on the impact and the squad's ability to overcome setbacks. Pitching matchups take center stage, with Clayton Kershaw, Blake Snell, Yu Darvish, and Dylan Cease — among a slew of many other studs — set to battle it out on the mound. Both Javier and Jake also discuss their general expectations and points of intrigue for the series, including Fernando Tatis Jr.'s potential for a breakout performance. Go Padres.
