After a rough series in Pittsburgh, the Rockies head to our nation’s capital to take on the similarly sputtering Washington Nationals. The Nats shut out the Los Angeles Dodgers 1-0, but were outscored 19-5 in the previous two contests. However, this marked the first time the Dodgers have been shut out since Aug. 29, 2021 vs. Colorado (a 5-0 Rockies victory). The Nats are also in the midst of a 17 games in 17 days streak that started on May 20, so we’ll see how that affects them heading into Thursday’s matchup.
Germán Márquez will start for the Rockies.
