The surging San Francisco Giants are coming off a three-game sweep at Arizona to make it 10-2 in their last 12 games.

They took two of three against Colorado June 26-28, and I think the Giants will open this series with a win behind Madison Bumgarner (1-2, 2.51 ERA). In 27 starts in his career, Bumgarner is 12-7 with a 2.92 ERA against the Rockies. He started the season on the disabled list but has recorded four quality starts in five starts since coming back early June and he has tossed a total of 15 scoreless innings through his last two starts.

The Rockies hand the ball to left-hander Kyle Freeland (7-6, 3.29 ERA) who is 4-2 with a 2.61 ERA in seven career outings vs. San Francisco, but note that current Giants are hitting a combined .317 through 139 at bats off him while Bumgarner has current Rockies limited to a .234 AVG over 231 at bats.

Both starters pitched seven scoreless innings before the Giants won 1-0 when Bumgarner and Freeland went toe to toe last week, and I expect the red hot Giants to keep rolling here at Coors Field.

10* play on San Francisco Giants.
