New York Yankees vs. San Diego Padres: Carlos Rodon vs. Nick Pivetta
Briefly

The Yankees are looking to rebound after two consecutive series losses as they host the San Diego Padres, a strong opponent. Carlos Rodón, the Yankees' second-best starter recently, aims to deliver another solid performance against Nick Pivetta of the Padres, who holds a great record despite struggles against the Yankees historically. Aaron Judge is anticipated to bounce back after a lackluster game, and lineup changes include the return of Anthony Volpe. Weather conditions remain uncertain for the match, which is the Padres' only visit to New York this season aside from a September game against the Mets.
Nick Pivetta's off to a roll this year, 5-1 with a 1.78 ERA. If it weren't for Max Fried, he would probably be considered the best free agent signing so far this year.
Carlos Rodón has been on a pretty good run of late...given the quality of pitching the Padres feature in both the rotation and the bullpen, silencing their lineup will be key to this series.
