The Padres look to claim the series in Game 2 of their three-game set against the Brewers in Milwaukee. San Diego came away with a comfortable 2-0 victory in the opening matchup that featured a scarcity of offense from the home squad.
Luis Arraez's RBI single and Manny Machado's solo shot were the only runs scored in the ball game as the Friars' pitching crew limited the Brewers' offense to four base hits. Wandy Peralta was awarded the victory while Robert Suarez tallied a major league-leading 20th save of the season.
