The Rockies have an impressive 21-14 record at Coors Field and will look to add another tally to the win column when they take on the Padres on Tuesday night. It will be a hot night at the park on a day that had record-breaking temperatures over 100 and will only be cooled down to the high 90s for the first pitch.
Chi Chi González (2-4, 5.74) will be making the start for Colorado, holding down Jon Gray’s spot in the rotation while he continues to recover from a right flexor strain. Even though González has struggled with giving up more homers that have ballooned his ERA since May 18, as chronicled by Purple Row’s Justin Wick earlier today, the good news is how he’s performed at Coors Field.
