**Astros Visit Coors Field Amid Rockies’ Woes**

DENVER, CO – The Houston Astros (50-34), currently leading the AL West, are in Denver to face the struggling Colorado Rockies (19-65) in a three-game series. The series kicks off tonight at Coors Field, where the Rockies have suffered through a historically bad home record.

The Rockies’ 8-32 record at home is the worst in the Majors, tying for the worst start at home in the Modern Era, a mark they now share with the 2003 Detroit Tigers. Adding to their woes, the Rockies have allowed at least one run in 203 consecutive games, the longest such streak in the Modern Era, surpassing the St. Louis Browns’ previous record of 199 games from 1939-40. The last time the Rockies shut out an opponent was on May 15th against San Diego.

The Astros arrive in Colorado on a hot streak, having won six of their last seven and 14 of their last 18 games. They are coming off two consecutive winning road trips and will send left-hander Colton Gordon to the mound. Gordon (3.98 ERA) is coming off a stellar outing against the Phillies, where he pitched five scoreless innings. He is known for his exceptional control, boasting the fewest walks among AL pitchers with at least 40 innings pitched.

The Rockies will counter with Chase Dollander, who has struggled this season (6.06 ERA). Dollander’s Coors Field numbers are particularly concerning, with an 8.54 ERA in six home starts.

Adding a spark of excitement for the Rockies, prospect Yanquiel Fernández has been called up and is expected to play against right-handed pitchers.

Fans can listen to the games on KOA 850 AM/94.1 FM and KNRV 1150 (Spanish).
