The Padres are back on the road after going 2-4 in their road trip. Tonight they kick off a three-game set in Colorado, against a Rockies team they've played consistently well against all season. In nine meetings between the two teams, San Diego is 7-2. They might have won an eighth time, but their most recent game against the Rockies was called and postponed due to rain.
Tyson Ross has pitched twice against the Rockies already this season, but he's hoping for more luck tonight. He went 0-1 in those first two starts this year and remains winless all-time against Colorado.
