Colorado Rockies Vs New York Mets Baseball

QUEENS, New York — The Colorado Rockies (9-47) are looking to bounce back this weekend as they face the New York Mets (34-22) at Citi Field. After suffering a disappointing string of losses, including their current streak of 21 consecutive series defeats dating back to 2024, the Rockies are eager to find their footing.

On Saturday, Rockies pitcher Antonio Senzatela (1-9, 6.50 ERA) enters the game hoping to secure a much-needed win. He has struggled this season, allowing at least four earned runs in several starts, but he has shown flashes of potential, particularly with a positive record against the Mets in previous outings.

The Mets will counter with ace David Peterson (3-2, 2.79 ERA), who has performed exceptionally well this year, including three straight quality starts. He has consistently kept batting averages low with a strikeout-to-walk ratio that has impressed observers. Rockies hitters will face a tough task as they look to exploit any weaknesses in Peterson’s game.

In a notable roster move, Thairo Estrada will make his Rockies debut at second base and bat fourth. The team hopes he can bring a spark to their lineup alongside Sam Hilliard, who will also have a starting role in left field this weekend.

Fans can tune in for the action on Saturday at 5:10 p.m. MDT. The game will be broadcasted on Rockies TV and KOA 850 AM/94.1 FM (Spanish radio available on KNRV 1150). As the Rockies aim to break their losing streak and gather momentum for the coming weeks, every game counts.
