Dodgers close in on NL West regular season title
Perched in first place in the National League West, with an 87-65 record, Los Angeles has reduced their pennant winning number to three over San Francisco. No matter what the Giants do this weekend, a Dodgers sweep of the Rockies would make their pending series versus San Fran meaningless. After dropping four in a row, Los Angeles has won two straight and they are 20-9 since August 25. The Dodgers are 11-5 versus the Rockies this season - though just 3-3 during their last six matches.
Rockies are playing out the string on a fifth straight losing season
Despite being seventh overall in runs scored (682) and team batting average (.264) Colorado is 63-90 and they are 24.5 games behind the Dodgers in the NL West. Pitching continues to be a major issue in Colorado has the Rockies 5.09 team ERA and their 805 runs allowed are both MLB worst marks. Since dealing away a chunk of talent at the MLB trade deadline, Colorado has posted a 20-32 record and they have lost five straight contests at Coors Field by a 43-21 combined final score.
