The Colorado Rockies kicked off the month of July with a three-game winning streak. They look to make it four on the Fourth.<\/p>\n
After a pair of stellar games against the Miami Marlins on Wednesday and Thursday, Friday night saw 15 runs on 18 hits with three dingers from the Rockies offense, a stellar quality start from Ryan Feltner, and a scoreless Gabriel Hughes MLB debut in a series opening 15-3 win<\/a> over the San Francisco Giants.<\/p>\n The Rockies scored 14+ runs in their last two games, becoming only the third team since 2020<\/a> to hit that mark in back-to-back games. They\u2019ll look to carry that momentum (and hopefully some of those offensive fireworks) into the Independence Day matchup.<\/p>\n Tomoyuki Sugano was projected to get the start for the Rockies but was scratched from the lineup early in the day with back spasms. Instead, Sean Sullivan will take the mound.<\/p>\n Sullivan\u2019s last start was Monday <\/a>to kick off the Marlins series. He went 4.2 innings, giving up five runs on six hits with a home run and five strikeouts in a 10-7 loss. On the year, he\u2019s 0-2 across his four MLB starts with an 8.64 ERA and 12 strikeouts.<\/p>\n On the other end of the career playing time spectrum, 13-year veteran Robbie Ray gets the nod for the Giants. This year, Ray is 7-6 with a 3.39 ERA and 82 strikeouts in 16 starts. He managed a win in his last game, going eight innings in a 3-2 win over the Atlanta Braves. Ray has already faced the Rockies this season. While he didn\u2019t get the decision, he gave up three runs (one earned) in four innings as the Giants beat the Rockies 19-6<\/a> back on May 31st.<\/p>\n In the Battle of the Basement, the two squads are now neck and neck with Colorado at 36-53 and San Francisco at 36-51. The Rockies have the Giants\u2019 number head-to-head so far, notching three wins in four tries. With the team\u2019s confidence hitting a new peak, the Rockies will try to extend their lead against the division foe on Saturday night.<\/p>\n Radio: KOA 850 AM\/94.1 FM; KNRV 1150 (Spanish)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Colorado Rockies kicked off the month of July with a three-game winning streak.
