Colorado is 5-9 on the road and plays its sixth straight road contest. They're looking road weary, losing the last two games 7-3 and 2-1. Colorado's offense, so potent at Coors Field, has been comatose on the road this season. The Rockies, who entered yesterday's game hitting .226 on the road, managed just four hits and a lot of their at-bats ended with outfield pop-ups. In fact, they've dropped 7-of-8 games overall. The Rockies are 15-38 in their last 53 vs. a team with a winning record and 17-40 in their last 57 games as a road underdog. Los Angeles is doing everything right, sitting in first place because of a sparkling 14-3 record at home. This offense is No. 6 in baseball in on-base percentage and No. 7 in batting average. Veteran lefty Ted Lilly (4-0, 1.41 ERA) has been lights-out and is 9-2 in his career against Colorado. The Dodgers are 42-13 in their last 55 games as a favorite and 6-0 in Lilly's last six home starts vs. a team with a losing record. The Rockies are 31-64 in the last 95 meetings in Los Angeles. Play the Dodgers.
