Preview

The Colorado Rockies will visit the Milwaukee Brewers to play a 4-game series at the American Family Field. The Rockies won their last 3 series before the All-Star break while the Brewers lost vs the San Francisco Giants.

Colorado Rockies

The Rockies get here with a 43-50 record and have won 5 of their last 6 games.

Probable Pitcher:

Antonio Senzatela (3-5, 4.95 ERA) will be on the mound for the Rockies in the 1st game of the series. Senzatela initially appeared on track to make his return from the IL for Colorado's final game before the All-Star break last weekend against the Pirates, but the Rockies ultimately decided he was better off getting some additional recovery time. The right-hander built up to five innings in his rehab start July 12 with Triple-A Albuquerque. He has a record of 1-0 with an ERA of 3.12 and 23 strikeouts in 5 appearances against the Brewers in his career.

Willy Adames leads the team with 19 home runs and 51 RBI while Rowdy Tellez is batting for a .227 AVG and has 57 RBI.

Defensively they are allowing 4.22 runs per game and ranking #12 in the league. Corbin Burnes leads the pitching staff with a 2.14 ERA, 144 strikeouts and 7 wins recorded with the Brewers.

Probable Pitcher:  Corbin Burnes (7-4, 2.14 ERA)

Burnes will be on the mound in the 1st game of the series for the Brewers. Burnes allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and three walks in 7.1 innings of no-decision against the Giants on Thursday.
