The Colorado Rockies’ whirlwind tour of the National League East continued unabated last night with a 9-8 victory over the Washington Nationals for their fourth road win in a row, along with the Rockies’ best road trip of the season. Currently 6-1 on their (now) nine-game east coast road trip, the Rockies look to add another win today and secure the series in our nation’s capital.
Starting for the Rockies is Kyle Freeland, looking to put up a good start after two rough outings. On September 6, he got pounded by the Giants to the tune of seven earned runs in just 4 1⁄3 innings.
