Colorado Rockies vs San Francisco Giants Game 1 Betting Preview

The San Francisco Giants and Colorado Rockies will play the first game of their double-header at Oracle Park at 7:05 PM ET on July 27, 2024. Going into the first game of this twin-bill between NL West foes, the Giants have a 50-55 record, while the Rockies are tied for the worst record in the National League entering Saturday at 38-66.

Set to get the start for the visiting Rockies in the first game of this double-header is Ryan Feltner, who is hoping to get a much-needed win in what has been a brutal season for him. The Rockies right-hander is just 1-10 so far this season, with an ERA of 5.19. While it is hard to sustain confidence after a start like that, Feltner will aim to keep the bats of the Giants off-balance in search of his second win of the 2024 season.

San Francisco, meanwhile, will send Blake Snell to the hill for this contest. Snell is 0-3 on the season with a 5.83 ERA, having missed some time in June and early July. He has given up just two earned runs in 18 innings of work since his return in the second week of July and will look to give the Giants some length in this contest to avoid taxing the team's bullpen with another game to play later in the night.

Colorado enters Saturday's play with the worst run differential in the National League, thanks in large part to the worst pitching staff in baseball in terms of runs allowed. To be fair, some of that has to do with playing their home games at the hitter-friendly Coors Field. But to attribute the Rockies' pitching woes solely on that would be dishonest, as the Rockies have been plenty bad on the mound on the road as well. Look for San Francisco to take advantage of that to start this double-header from the Bay Area.
