Momentum: The Colorado Rockies blew out the Cincinnati Reds, 13-2, in Game 2 to secure their fourth win in five games and improve their standings to 14-17 on the season.
The Cincinnati Reds remain the top dog in the National League Central with a 19-11 record despite going 1-2 in their last three games.
The Matchup: Colorado earned a rare win over the Reds after Tomoyuki Sugano blanked Cincinnati through 5.1 innings and Hunter Goodman recorded three RBIs and two homers. Colorado is 3-15 in its last 18 games against Cincinnati and 4-16 SU in its last 20 games when playing on the road against Cincinnati.
Starting Pitchers: Rockies RHP Michael Lorenzen (2-2, 5.97 ERA) vs. Andrew Abbot (0-2, 6.59 ERA).
Lorenzen’s last start saw him surrender one run over seven innings in a 4-3 win over the New York Mets on April 26. After a disastrous season debut, in which he conceded 9 earned runs over 3 innings in the Rockies' 1-10 loss to the Phillies, Lorenzon has steadily stabilized his numbers over the next five starts.
Lorenzen needs to be really careful with the Reds, though. The pitcher has surrendered an average of 4.0 runs across the last three starts against Cincinnati. He also gave up six earned runs in his last start against the NL Central powerhouse on May 26, 2025.
As for Abbot, it has been a bumpy season so far for the lefty who terrorized the league with his nifty pitching last season. Abbot faltered again in his last start, allowing 5 earned runs over 4 innings. The Reds won in Abbot’s last three starts against Colorado, but the lefty squandered four earned runs over 4 innings in his last start vs. the Rockies.
