Here is what you need to know about this matchup.
Padres at Dodgers, 7:20 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock
The Dodgers (59-31) enter the series finale with the best record in the Majors by a sizable margin. Unsurprisingly, Los Angeles has also built up the largest divisional lead of any team. This has been a dominant effort on both sides of the ball: the Dodgers entered Sunday with an MLB-best 481 runs scored and boasted the fourth best ERA (3.46). The Dodgers will rely on Emmet Sheehan (5.08 ERA and 81 strikeouts in 15 starts) to try to secure a four-game sweep against San Diego.
It's been a rough stretch for the Padres after a strong start to the season. The Padres find themselves two games under .500, which can mostly be explained by an offense that has scored the fewest runs (343) in the Majors. Also complicating matters is a pitching staff that has the sixth worst ERA (5.02) over the last 30 days. JP Sears (6.97 ERA in two outings) will make his third start of the season.
