Prediction published on 6/25/25, 4:49 PM  by Travis Pulver | Modified on 1/13/26 at 9:30 AM in MLB Picks

The Colorado Rockies will host the Los Angeles Dodgers in the second game of a three-game series. Game time for this NL West matchup is scheduled for 8:40 p.m. EST.

Colorado got out to an early 2-0 lead in yesterday’s game with a run in the first and third. But LA took the lead with a six-run fourth inning highlighted by a three-run shot from Michael Conforto. The Rockies got within one after scoring three in the bottom of the eighth inning to make the score 8-7, but then LA tacked on another run in the ninth inning to make the final score 9-7.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto will try to keep the good times rolling for the Dodgers when he takes the mound to start the day. Yamamoto is 6-6 on the season with a 2.76 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP. He has been at his best when pitching on the road. In seven road starts, he has a 4-2 record with a 1.76 ERA and .176 OBA. Colorado will task Chase Dollander with keeping the LA lineup in check. However, he’s 2-6 with a 6.19 ERA and 1.48 WHIP. The leash for him will likely be short, as he seems to pitch his worst at home. In five starts, he is 2-2 with a 9.58 ERA and .341 OBA.
