The Colorado Rockies set the MLB’s worst road record of 6-31 this season, but finished fourth in their home wins on Wednesday, winning by 27 and struggling on Thursday. St. Louis wants to add another against the Cardinals.
Rocky starter Antonio Senzatela starts with a 6.35 ERA in 0: 4, beating his opponents by .341 in six innings. In the past eight home games, he has had a 2.90 ERA, allowing three home moves of 49 yards.
He will face Adam Wainwright, who has six home runs from St. Louis with a 6.31 ERA and 11 walks in a 25-yard touchdown run in five starts. Compared to the .205 at home, the opponents hit a .272 shot from him on the way.
The Cardinals came in on Wednesday with four or fewer results in 15 of their last 17 games. The only team in MLB where traffic is worse than average is Rocky.
The Rockies are tied with the Reds, and in most of the home games on Wednesday, the Cardinals have to lose nine of their last games on the road and start the series with a win.
Game: Rocky, +120.
