Jake Peavy had his last All-Star appearance in 2012 and it's been eight seasons since he won his only Cy Young award with the Padres in 2007, but he may end this season as a starting pitcher on two consecutive World Series-winning rotations. And he's done so pitching as well as he has at any point in his career after being traded from the Red Sox, with a 2.17 ERA in 12 regular season starts for San Francisco and a victory in Game 1 of the NLDS against the Nationals.
NLCS Game 2
After running up a 4.72 ERA with Boston, a change of scenery and a reunion with his former Padres manager Bruce Bochy turned Peavy’s season around. A few “tweaks” by pitching coach Dave Righetti didin’t hurt either. As Peavy explained, “It really wasn’t anything major, but it’s made a world of difference.”
His Game 2 opponent will be Lance Lynn. The right-hander pitched exceptionally well in the regular season, posting a 2.74 ERA in 203⅔ innings pitched, both career bests. Lynn feels good about his chances on Sunday. "Confidence has never been a problem, that's for sure," he told reporters. Or, as he puts it: "I just go out and pitch, I don't worry about anything. Pretty simple."
You can see whether Lynn’s confidence is warranted starting with the Fox Sports 1 pregame at 7:30 p.m. ET, followed by game coverage starting at 8:00 p.m. on the same channel. First pitch is scheduled for 8:07 p.m. You can also watch the game on MLB.tv and hear it on your local ESPN affiliate.
