Lance Lynn pitched a gem last night at Coors Field and the Texas Rangers topped the Colorado Rockies, 3-2, to extend their winning streak to 3 games. Tonight they meet again and the Rockies will look to even the score when they send Germán Márquez to the hill. Márquez will have payback on his mind. He is 2-2, with a 2.08 ERA and a WHIP of only 0.92. The last time Márquez faced Texas, he took a no hitter into the 6th inning, only to end up taking the loss, and that hurts. The Rangers are expected to counter with Kyle Gibson. The ex-Twin has yet to win a game, at 0-2, with a 4.11 ERA and a 1.57 WHIP. Gibson was lit up in his last turn, allowing 9 hits and 4 runs in just 4-1/3 innings of work. Not good. Rocks get to Gibson.
TONIGHT’S PICK: COLORADO ROCKIES
