San Fransisco at Colorado

The Rockies (68-53) and Giants (66-55) have jockeyed for the wild-card spot since the start of July, with neither team unable to create much separation in the standings.

The Rockies return home riding a four-game winning streak and have won eight of 11 & are 25-10 at home since May 29.
On the mound for the Rocks is Aaron Cook (10-5, 4.31 ERA),Cook was tagged for a season-high seven runs and eight hits with three walks in 2 1-3 innings of a 10-3 loss to Florida on Sunday. The sinkerballer has now lost consecutive starts after going
7-0 with a 2.97 ERA in his previous 11 outings.He needs this win bad to get back on track,thnk god that the Giants aren't hitting the ball all that well as of late.

During that winning stretch, Cook limited the Giants to two runs and nine hits in seven innings of a 4-2 victory on July 26. The right-hander is 5-2 with a 3.72 ERA in seven starts against San Francisco since 2007.

On the rubber for the Giants is Jonathan Sanchez (5-10, 4.49), who allowed two runs, four hits and four walks with seven strikeouts in seven innings of a 3-2 loss to the New York Mets on Sunday, but didn't get a decision.

The Rockies are hosting a battle of top wild-card contenders against the Giants, have won four in a row and eight of 11, and Aaron Cook is 5-2 with a 3.72 ERA in his last seven starts against San Francisco.

The Giants’ Jonathan Sanchez is 0-3 with a bloated 8.80 ERA in his last three starts against Colorado.

Colorado has won 6 of the last 8 games and they have also won 12 of the last 13 games as a home favorite of -150 to -200. Jonathan Sanchez has lost 9 consecutive games as a road underdog of +100 or higher and he has also lost 6 of the last 7 road games when the total posted is between 8.5 and 10 runs.

Colorado "Best Bet" & side order of the Red Birds & Tigers. (the righthander E Jackson threw seven innings of one-run ball in a 14-1 home rout of the A’s in May.

Oakland’s Gio Gonzalez is 0-2 with a whopping 14.85 ERA in two career starts against Detroit.

Nah. Just a coincidence....but it didn't matter. Rocks struggled for runs for some reason. Guess Tulo was the catalyst, and they couldn't do it without him. Looks like it hurt my total and your side.
