Rockies pitchers have posted a 2.71 ERA in PetCo park.
Both teams have batter in the mid-.220s against each other in PetCo Park.
Kevin Correia doesn't walk an absurd number of batters, so we'll have to be on our most-patient behavior, yet be able to pick up mistakes. Yes, cake and eating it. Correia has also been striking a lot more guys out than his career norms, so we need to watch out for that. Correia has also posted a 1.59 ERA in PetCo.
