**Palmquist Seeks Redemption in Coors Field Debut as Rockies Face Phillies**
DENVER, CO – Carson Palmquist, the Rockies’ young left-hander, will make his highly anticipated Coors Field debut tonight as Colorado hosts the Philadelphia Phillies in the third game of a four-game series. After a rocky Major League debut against Arizona where he surrendered five runs on six hits, Palmquist (0-1, 11.25 ERA) is looking to bounce back and showcase the strikeout potential that earned him a call-up from the minors.
The 24-year-old Palmquist impressed in the minor leagues, compiling a 2-2 record and a 3.82 ERA in seven starts, along with 45 strikeouts. His minor league track record boasts an impressive 11.84 strikeouts per nine innings across 54 appearances. While his first outing didn’t go as planned, he hopes the home crowd will bring him some luck as he seeks his first MLB strikeout.
The Rockies (8-40) are struggling mightily against the Phillies (30-18) this season, having lost all five of their previous matchups. Philadelphia has outscored Colorado 30-10 in those games. The Phillies took the first two games of the current series 9-3 and 7-4, respectively.
Philadelphia will counter with veteran right-hander Taijuan Walker (1-3, 2.62 ERA). Walker, a 2021 All-Star, dominated the Rockies in his previous start against them this season, tossing six scoreless innings and allowing just three hits in a 3-1 victory.
Meanwhile, happy birthday wishes go out to Rockies infielder Tyler Freeman, who turns 26 today. Despite a strong 3-for-4 performance on Tuesday, Freeman will not be in tonight’s starting lineup.
