A pair of two-time All-Stars accustomed to big-time winning will look to wipe out losing records when Walker Buehler and the San Diego Padres continue a brief three-game road trip against Logan Webb and the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday.

The Giants snapped a six-game losing streak in Monday's series opener, riding Trevor McDonald's pitching to a 3-2 victory. It was San Francisco's third win in four meetings with San Diego this season.

Buehler (1-2, 5.40 ERA) will take the mound in San Francisco for the 10th time in his career. The right-hander has gone 6-2 with a 3.65 ERA at Oracle Park and 7-3 with a 3.00 ERA overall in 15 appearances (13 starts) against the Giants in his career.

In his first season with the Padres, Buehler has struggled in his past two starts, lasting a total of 7 1/3 innings in a pair of 8-3 losses to the Colorado Rockies and Chicago Cubs.

'Just not good enough,' Buehler told reporters after his most recent outing a week ago against the Cubs. 'Got to get deeper and get more efficient. We've kind of established that the stuff has improved, and I'm in a lot better spot. But I haven't quite had that one that it all kind of clicks together in terms of the execution.'

Buehler will be facing a Giants team that has totaled just 12 runs in its last seven games.

San Francisco went homerless while going winless on a six-game trip to Philadelphia and Tampa Bay last week, a drought Casey Schmitt ended in the first inning of Monday's win.

The Giants have won their past three home games. The long flight home from Florida and a change of scenery was just what the doctor ordered, Schmitt said.

'The big thing was to flush that road trip. Obviously it didn't go any way we wanted it to go,' Schmitt said. 'It's a new series, a new day.'

No doubt, Webb (2-3, 4.30) also would be perfectly happy to turn the page after having nothing to show for a pair of hard-luck efforts in his past two outings. The right-hander allowed just four runs over 14 innings to the Los Angeles Dodgers and Phillies in those starts, games the Giants lost 3-0 and 3-2.

Webb would like nothing better than to get the level of support he received when he pitched in a 9-3 win at San Diego in the first week of the season. It improved his career record against the Padres to 5-5 with a 3.23 ERA in 18 games, including 17 starts.

Schmitt got the loudest of San Francisco's six hits in the series opener on Monday and Luis Arraez chipped in with a pair of doubles and scored twice. The biggest news of the night offensively, however, was the two-RBI performance of Rafael Devers, who hadn't had a multiple-RBI game since April 8.

Playing first base, Devers responded on a day when the Giants promoted one of their top prospects, Bryce Eldridge, who is seen as the future of the first base position in San Francisco.

Eldridge was used as the DH in his big-league season debut Monday, going 0-for-2 with a walk and a strikeout.

The 21-year-old, who got 37 plate appearances last season, has never faced Buehler.
