My Prediction
Los Angeles Dodgers by 2Alright sports fans, let's dive into today's game with the Colorado Rockies versus the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium. Sidenote: this place is a paradise for batters, so expect some high-flying action.
Let's jump into the pitchers, the men on the mound, the hurlers, if you will. Ryan Feltner for the Rockies with a commendable 2.81 ERA and 1.19 WHIP, then there's Landon Knack for the Dodgers. Now this lad has had some highs and lows, hasn't he? Sporting a 10.98 ERA this season, but lest we forget his last season performance, 3.72 ERA and 1.124 WHIP. That's some range right there.
Now to the men with the bats - Rockies first. Kyle Farmer and Nick Martini are commenting consistent batting averages, while Hunter Goodman and Ryan McMahon are packing some power with a handful of home runs between them. The Dodgers have a powerhouse of hitters; Will Smith and Mookie Betts standing out with higher than average batting figures and Tommy Edman knocking in a fair number of runs. Let's not forget the multi-talented sensation, Shohei Ohtani, a one-stop shop for both pitching and hitting.
Look at the history, the Dodgers have had an upper hand in recent huddle-ups with Rockies. That said, records suggest Dodgers are doing much better overall in the season than the Rockies.
But as they say, every game is a new game. Dodgers have been a bit jumpy in their recent games, a whopping loss to Chicago sprinkled with some wins but Rockies, ah well, they are having a bit of a nightmare, aren’t they? Just a single win in their last five games.
Now, you're wondering who's taking this one home? Let's put it this way: I see a happy home crowd tonight.
