- What: MLB Regular Season Game
- When: April 5, 2025
- Who: Athletics vs. Colorado Rockies
- Time: 5:10 p.m. PST
- Where: Coors Field (Denver, CO)
The Colorado Rockies will aim to end their five-game losing streak on Saturday when they take on the Athletics. The game will begin at 5:10 p.m. PST at Coors Field.
JP Sears (0-1, 2.70 ERA) will start for the Athletics, seeking his first win of the season, while German Marquez will take the mound for the Rockies.
This matchup comes on the heels of the Athletics’ 6-3 win over the Rockies the day before, with Noah Murdock earning the victory after pitching two scoreless innings.
Jacob Wilson stood out offensively for the Athletics, going 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBIs, while Angel Chivilli took the loss for the Rockies after giving up two runs in just two-thirds of an inning.
Both teams have struggled offensively of late, but if anyone is poised to win, it’s the Rockies with Marquez on the hill. After a long absence due to injuries, he made a strong return by holding the formidable Phillies scoreless over six innings in his first game back.
The Athletics lineup is less potent, so Marquez should succeed against them. In his debut, Sears allowed two earned runs against the Mariners, showing that Marquez has the edge in performance.
The Rockies will bounce back at home, as players like Tovar and Bryant have shown they can’t hit this poorly for long. Following a tough series in Philadelphia, Colorado is ready to get back on track with a win.
I think the Athletics lose this one and the Rockies losing streak comes to an end. Take the Rockies to win this one over the Athletics.
