Overview

  • The Giants have won five consecutive one-run games, including a sweep of the Braves, and aim for a sixth victory over Colorado.
  • Kyle Harrison is 3-0 with a 2.20 ERA in five career starts against the Rockies and has not allowed a run in 12 innings at Coors Field.
  • Rookie Carson Palmquist (0-4, 8.50 ERA) will try to avoid a fifth straight loss after dropping each of his first four major league starts.
  • Colorado owns a 12-53 record through 65 games—the worst start in modern MLB history—and is 6-25 at home with a 4-37 mark when conceding a home run.
  • Outfielders Sam Hilliard (.368 average in eight games) and Hunter Goodman (.280 with 10 homers) have provided rare offensive boosts for the Rockies.
