WATCH Braves vs. Padres Online Live Stream, San Diego Sweep? Free MLB 2015 Game 3 Coverage

Baseball's back for the official 2015 MLB season, and things are finally heating-up!

The Atlanta Braves take the field against the San Diego Padres in Week 20 of the regular season on Wednesday, August 19 at 3:40 p.m. EST at PETCO Park in California. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the final Game 3 afternoon ballgame online - also catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

Both Atlanta and San Diego maintain a rather meager standings in ESPN.com's official breakdown of all 30 MLB teams (power rankings):

Padres (19): "Matt Kemp hit for the cycle Friday night, becoming the first Padre in franchise history to do so, in the club's 7,444th game. Kemp hit .305/.370/.537 with five home runs and 20 RBIs in his first 95 at-bats since the All-Star break. Struggling Jedd Gyorko put up a more promising .258/.307/.452 line in his first 93 post-break at-bats." Diane Firstman, Value Over Replacement Grit 

San Diego currently holds a steady 58-62 winning record and is now 4th in the National League Western Division. The Padres could sweep the series with another win today, after snagging a huge Game 2 victory with a score of 9-0 against the Braves.

Braves (22): "Atlanta continues its bullpen merry-go-round. Last week saw them sign Cubs castoff Edwin Jackson for a relief role and then promote a fan favorite, Aussie side-armer Peter Moylan. Those were the Nos. 32 and 33 pitchers used this season by the team, already a franchise record." Martin Gandy, Chop County 

With that, Atlanta snags only 53 wins and 66 losses and remains 3rd in the National League Eastern Division.

The Wednesday afternoon's ballgame will be broadcasted live on local sports channels SPSO and FSSD.
