4. **Team Previews**

Colorado Rockies

The Colorado Rockies have displayed a potent offense this season, ranking first with a batting average of .264 and accumulating 992 hits, which also ranks first in the league. Their ability to score runs has been key, as they have recorded 511 runs thus far, placing them 10th overall. Martin Perez, despite his struggles with a 5.20 ERA, has shown resilience in his outings, and the Rockies will rely heavily on him to limit damage against a struggling Padres lineup.

San Diego Padres

The San Diego Padres have faced challenges this season, particularly in their pitching staff, where they rank 30th in the league with a 5.50 ERA. Tanner Gordon has not yet found his footing with an alarming 8.80 ERA and a WHIP of 1.76, suggesting he has been prone to allowing base runners. The Padres' offense has also struggled, ranking 15th in batting average at .243 and 16th in runs scored with 468. However, they boast some powerful hitters, and if they can find their rhythm, they could pose a significant threat to the Rockies.
