... brothers to continue their mastery of the former Pirates pitcher, and might Michael Barrett get a start tonight? Barrett has had a monumentally disappointing stay in San Diego, batting just .220 and he hasn’t hit a single homerun since joining the Padres, but in 25 at-bats against Fogg, Barrett has his .440 with 3 homers and 5 RBIs.
