The Padres beat the Marlins, 3-2, at Petco Park on Sunday, sweeping the weekend series while scoring exactly three times in each triumph. San Diego is 43-19 when scoring three or more runs this season (4-33 in all other games).

New York defeated the Dodgers, 3-2, in 10 innings at Citi Field on Sunday, and has put together back-to-back wins for the first time since the All-Star break. The Mets are 6-2 (.750) in extra-inning games this year -- tied for third best in MLB.

San Diego took two of three from New York in the clubs' first meeting of the season at Petco Park (June 1-3), and has won seven of the last 11 meetings with the Mets overall. That said, the Padres haven't won a series at Citi Field since 2009.

James Shields pitched five innings of shutout ball against the Giants in his last outing, but got a no-decision when the Padres' bullpen gave up seven runs. Shields (1-0, 2.01 ERA in last four starts) is 2-0 with a 1.93 ERA in two career starts against the Mets.

Including allowing one earned run in a five-inning no-decision against the Nats in his last outing, Noah Syndergaard is 2-1 with a 1.59 ERA in his last five starts. Syndergaard, who allowed a career-high seven runs in his first career appearance vs. the Padres on June 2, leads all MLB rookies who have pitched at least 70 innings in 2015 with a 2.97 ERA.

Matt Kemp is batting .380 (19-for-50) with five homers, 12 RBI and eight multi-hit performances in his last 14 games. Kemp is a career .361 hitter at Citi Field since it opened in 2009 -- second highest batting average of any player all-time (minimum 70 AB).

HP - Bucknor, 1B - Scott, 2B - Hoye, 3B - Barrett

As the New York Mets' search for offensive reinforcement continues, the immediate focus is just winning a series for the first time in more than two weeks.
They can do so Thursday - and no longer with Carlos Gomez coming on board - against a visiting San Diego Padres team still listening to offers as the trade deadline approaches.

Padres-Mets Preview

NEW YORK (AP)  Noah Syndergaard had the fans on their feet and the Padres in the palm of his hand. With one pinpoint pitch after another, he nearly turned a sour day for the New York Mets into a thrilling night at Citi Field.
Syndergaard retired his first 18 batters in the rookie's latest overpowering performance, and New York got two-run homers from Lucas Duda and Curtis Granderson to beat San Diego 4-0 Tuesday night.
