- Analysis
- The San Francisco Giants are close to being eliminated from the Wild-Card race, but with a glimmer of hope, why not take a shot with them against the putrid Colorado Rockies, who have lost three straight and seven of 10.
Colorado is the doormat of the National League West, and is one of the worst road teams in baseball. The Rockies, who are 20-49 on the road this season, are hitting .227 away from Denver, fifth-worst road batting average in baseball. Their 218 runs on the road are fewest in the league, 34 fewer than 29th Detroit.
The Giants, who just swept three in Denver from Sept. 19-22, are hitting .286 during a 7-1 roll, and have hit 11 homers in that stretch. Of their 82 basehits, 36.5% have gone extra while they're averaging 5.1 runs per game in the eight games.
From the mound, the Giants have a 2.88 ERA during the eight-game run, as the pitching staff has limited hitters to only three homers and 3.1 runs per contest.
That's a +2.0 run margin during the eight-game run, and that's all we need tonight.
