Richard (3-3) allowed two runs on six hits and two walks with two strikeouts over 6.1 innings to earn the win Monday over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Richard continues to keep hitters off balance despite his middling stuff. He induced just six swinging strikes Monday night, but he used 13 groundouts to keep runners off the bases. Richard owns a 2.98 ERA, and while that's unlikely to be sustainable, Petco Park is the best possible venue for his pitch-to-contact skillset.
