Diamondbacks' Zac Gallen Struggles in High-Scoring Rockies Game

Zac Gallen has struggled in recent outings, allowing six runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings in a no-decision against the Colorado Rockies. Despite his poor performance, with a 5.14 ERA marking a career-worst pace, Gallen has historically dominated the Rockies, holding a 7-1 record and 2.59 ERA against them in 15 career starts. The Diamondbacks aim to capitalize on their home advantage and improve their 12-12 record, facing the Rockies who are enduring the worst start in modern MLB history at 7-37. Manager Torey Lovullo expressed confidence in the team’s ability to go on a winning streak to protect their home field. The Rockies will counter with German Marquez, coming off a strong outing but with an overall 8.27 ERA this season. Both teams have made recent roster moves, including the Diamondbacks placing Eduardo Rodriguez on the injured list and inserting Ryne Nelson into the rotation.
