NL West foes clash on "Friday Night Baseball" as the Padres head to the desert for a rendezvous with the Diamondbacks. 

Arizona (34-34) clawed its way back to the .500 mark on the backs of a three-game sweep of the Mariners, thanks in large part due to a relentless offense. Second baseman Ketel Marte (1.003 OPS) and outfielder Corbin Carroll (.915 OPS) are playing like bona fide MVP candidates, forming an elite one-two combination atop the lineup. 

Carroll, in his third year, touts an elite combination of power and speed. He enters Friday's contest with 19 homers, eight triples, and 10 stolen bases. 

San Diego (38-29) is still looking up to the vaunted Dodgers, after dropping a high-octane series at Petco Park earlier this week. Still, the Padres boast plenty of firepower, with veteran third baseman Manny Machado hitting .325 with a .904 OPS. 

This is the first matchup between the two divisional foes this season; San Diego helped keep Arizona out of the playoffs in 2024, beating the D'backs in two out of three games to close the regular season.
