In the series so far San Diego has 22 hits to score those 13 runs, but on only two extra base hits. Eguy Rosario had a pinch hit double in the first game and Ha-Seong Kim went yard for the third time this season, driving home three runs in the first inning of game two.
The offense will look to keep the pressure on Milwaukee again today in the final game of the series. On the mound to help navigate the third game of this series is veteran right-hander Michael King (2-0). In his first three starts King has a 4.19 ERA, striking out 19 batters in 19.1 innings pitched.
King started the season with a win as a reliever and then added a win as a starter last week. He is off to the best start of his career in his first season with San Diego after going 13-17 in 115 appearances for the New York Yankees in his first five seasons in the Majors. King is two wins away from matching his win total from last season and four wins away from a career-high.
