In a bid to recover from a disappointing series opener, the San Francisco Giants face the Colorado Rockies in day baseball. Right-hander Jordan Hicks is set to start, showcasing mixed performance this season with a 1-3 record and a 6.12 ERA. The Rockies counter with rookie pitcher Bradley Blalock, who has struggled in his prior appearances with a 10.29 ERA. The matchup highlights both teams' pitching struggles and the Giants' intention to solidify their standing after a recent win.
Taking the mound for the Giants is right-hander Jordan Hicks, who makes his seventh start of the season. How you view Hicks' season likely depends on how you view different pitching metrics, as he's 1-3 with a 6.12 ERA, a 3.68 FIP, and 27 strikeouts against 13 walks in 32.1 innings.
On the other side is right-hander Bradley Blalock, a pitcher I've definitely absolutely heard of, no doubt about it. Blalock, a 24-year old who has appeared in just 10 games in his young career, will make his second start of the year, and his fourth total appearance.
