Giants vs Rockies Preview: Robbie Ray Faces Coors Challenge

San Francisco is limping into Colorado with a 22-36 record and has lost five straight games. Ouch. The Giants need wins badly, and they're sending Robbie Ray to the mound on Sunday. Ray is a veteran pitcher who has played for five different teams in his career. He knows how to compete. The Giants will be without some key players due to injuries, but they showed fight on Saturday with a wild 6-8 loss. They scored in the ninth inning but couldn't hold on. Now it's time to bounce back and get a win at Coors Field.

The Rockies are also struggling at 22-37, but they caught fire with two straight wins heading into Sunday. That's huge momentum. Colorado plays at Coors Field, which is one of the hardest places to pitch in baseball because the thin air makes the ball fly farther. Tanner Gordon takes the mound for the Rockies on Sunday. The Rockies will need to keep their energy up and make every pitch count. Colorado showed they can score runs in Saturday's wild game, so they have confidence heading into this matchup.

Yesterday's game was wild. The Rockies came back late and scored four runs in the bottom of the ninth to stun the Giants 8-6. Tovar hit two home runs—one in the eighth inning and another in the ninth that gave Colorado the win. The Giants fought back with runs in the ninth, but it wasn't enough. Now both teams want revenge and need a win. Sunday is your chance to see which team has what it takes to bounce back and grab momentum in this series.
