How to Watch Braves at Padres: Wild Card Game 1: Live Stream, TV Channel

The Braves head out west on Tuesday evening to take on the Padres in Game 1 of their Wild Card series

The Atlanta Braves visit the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night in Game 1 of the Wild Card round. The Braves are back in the playoffs for the seventh straight year, but they needed every game of the regular season to earn that berth. They played the New York Mets in a doubleheader on Monday needing to win just one game. They lost a wild game in the opener of the twinbill, but were able to bounce back and get a 3-0 win in the second game to clinch a spot in the postseason. Unfortunately for them they had to use ace Chris Sale to get that win. Sale is now not scheduled to start any of the game against the Padres and wouldn’t pitch again unless the Braves make it to the NLDS.

The Padres, though, are trying to make sure that happens. The Padres are back in the playoffs after missing the postseason last year. They finished five games back of the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West, but finished tied with the Milwaukee Brewers for the third best record in the National League.

Their 93-69 record was good enough to give them the top wild card spot in the NL and home field advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

They will turn to Michael King in Game 1 as they try and get a leg up on the Braves. King finished the regular season 13-9 with a 2.95 ERA and 201 strikeouts. The Padres won ihs last start, but have dropped two of his last three.
