Colorado Rockies game no. 79 thread: Jack Dreyer vs. Germán Márquez

Tonight, the Los Angeles Dodgers (48-31) will play the Colorado Rockies (18-60) in the first of a three-game series at Coors Field.

Despite looking better in June with nine wins, the Rockies’ 60 losses in the first 78 games of a season are tied with the 1904 Washington Senators for the second-most losses to begin a season in the Modern Era (since 1901), ahead of the 1932 Boston Red Sox (17-61).

But, because the 2025 Rockies are also a very weird team, since June 1, they are among NL team leaders in slugging (.468. 1st), extra-base hits (76, 1st), doubles (37, 1st), triples (10, 1st), hits (180, T-2nd), batting (.260, 3rd) and home runs (29, T-4th)

In what looks to be a bullpen game, LHP Jack Dreyer will start for the Dodgers. He has a 3.18 ERA in 39.2 innings pitched. Included in that are 39 Ks. He also has a WHIP of 1.13. Worth noting, he has not given up an earned run in 22 of his 30 games.

Taking the mound for the Rockies will be Germán Márquez, who continues to find control of his pitches following Tommy John surgery. This will be his 190th start as a Rockie.

Currently, he has an ERA of 6.11 in 73.2 innings pitted. He’s struck out 50 and has a 1.64 WHIP.

And now to the details.
