Overview

  • Friday’s victory lifted Colorado to 22-72 overall, snapping a three-game road skid and staving off a record-low pre–All-Star win total.
  • The Reds fell to 48-47, leaving them one victory shy of ensuring a winning first half before the All-Star break.
  • Cincinnati’s season-opening run of 30 consecutive series without being swept now ties the 1989 team for the franchise’s second-longest such streak.
  • Both teams will send fresh pitching matchups to the mound in game two as they seek to sustain momentum into Saturday’s contest.
  • At their current pace, the Rockies project a 37-125 finish, which would surpass the modern-era loss mark set by the 2024 Chicago White Sox.
