Colorado Rockies' Road Woes Continue, Arizona Diamondbacks Poised for Victory at Home

The Colorado Rockies have struggled significantly while playing on the road this season, with a notable lack of offensive production as the visiting team. Their track record of losses on the road, losing 20 out of 22 games before Friday's matchup, does not bode well for their upcoming game. While pitcher Marquez did secure his first win of the season in his recent start, his overall season ERA remains high, despite allowing only one run over seven innings in the game against San Diego. On the other hand, the Arizona Diamondbacks boast a strong offensive lineup, and their pitcher Gallen has historically performed well against Colorado. Therefore, it is likely that the Diamondbacks will have the upper hand in this contest, emerging as the victors on home turf.
