What To Watch

Watch the starting-pitcher matchup: Kyle Freeland (LHP, #21) against Landen Roupp (RHP, #65).
Colorado Rockies list Jaden Hill as 15-Day IL.

The Regular Season showdown kicks off at 10:15 PM EDT under the bright lights of Oracle Park, with the Rockies’ Kyle Freeland (LHP #21) taking the mound against the Giants’ Landen Roupp (RHP #65). Fans can catch the action on MLB.TV or Rockies.TV as the two teams battle it out in San Francisco, California.

Freeland’s 5.47 ERA and 1.52 WHIP make him a tough nut to crack, but the Giants’ 4.31 ERA and 1.35 WHIP give Roupp a slight edge. With Jaden Hill and Kyle Karros out on the 15‑ and 7‑day IL, the Rockies are a bit thin on depth, while the Giants’ lineup is still healthy enough to keep the pressure on. Betting-wise, the Giants are the favorite (moneyline –126 vs 105 for Colorado) and the total is set at 8.0 runs. Make your pick or join the conversation on StreakChat.
