Matchup History
Colorado’s 3-2 win on Tuesday made it three straight wins for the Rockies in this head-to-head matchup.

Colorado is 1-7 in their last 8 game two matchups and 5-16 in their last 21 home games while the under is 7-3 in their last 10 games overall.
Pick
I’m backing the Rockies here. I’ve given Kyle Freeland some flack in recent starts and historically, he hasn’t fared well at home despite being a Colorado kid. However, he’s pitched fairly well for the most part this season, and Eric Lauer’s had massive issues in Colorado for some time now and I’m not expecting those issues to get resolved here. I’ll side with the Rockies to get the win in this one.
