San Francisco Giants Sunday, Aug 5, 2012, 1:10 PM MDT Tim Lincecum vs Tyler Chatwood Partly cloudy. Winds blowing out to center field at 5-10 m.p.h. Game time temperature around 85. Complete Coverage > | ||
If the Rockies can't avoid being swept today, they'll fall to an even 20 games back of the Giants in the NL West, and 30 (!) games under .500 overall. The good news, if any, is that the Rox are fielding their best possible lineup today to try to beat up on Timmay at Coors Field once again. The recently-promoted Tyler Chatwood will have to do his best to keep the Giants in single digits in runs scored, something Colorado's pichers were unable to do Friday night and last night.
Still, the prospects of beating a team that has trounced you two days in a row aren't looking too good, especially when the game falls on a day in which you have been incapable of winning for almost two full seasons.
