Cincinnati at Colorado

The Colorado Rockies are well known for the fact that they simply can't hit on the road, and usually take their lumps. They are off a road trip where they went 1-5, scoring just 19 runs. It runs their road record to a dismal 18-44 on the season, but alas, they return home again where they are a completely different team. The Rockies are just two games below .500 at home, and take on Cincinnati who actually has a worse road record than that at three games under the .500 mark. The Reds send struggling all-star Alfredo Simon to the mound. Simon since the all-star break, is 0-4 with a no decision, has not won in the second half of the season. The Reds are 0-7 in their last seven road games vs. a losing team. The Rockies have been lights-out at home behind DeLaRosa where they are a masterful 44-8 in his last 52 home starts. Take Colorado.
