Giants Hold Advantage Over Rockies in Upcoming Game

The San Francisco Giants currently hold an advantage over the Colorado Rockies in their upcoming game. The Giants have won seven of their last nine home games, while the Rockies have lost nine of their last 10 road games. San Francisco's success can be attributed to their strong performance against right-handed pitchers, particularly against Feltner, who has struggled on the mound, especially during road games. Feltner has given up a total of eight runs in three starts on the road, further adding to Colorado's challenges. Additionally, Colorado's bullpen has been experiencing difficulties, making it difficult for them to slow down the Giants' offense. On the other hand, the Giants' pitcher, Hicks, has shown excellent performance against the Rockies, boasting a 3-1 record in 10 games and only giving up three runs in his last two starts against them. With San Francisco's exceptional bullpen, they are likely to limit Colorado's offensive capabilities. Therefore, it is recommended to consider taking San Francisco on the run line for this matchup.
