#955 PIRATES with Keller (-146) over Rockies with Blalock at 3:10 PM EST
After two road losses to the Rockies, the Pirates will aim to secure a victory on Sunday to avoid a series sweep. Since June 19th, Colorado has won three consecutive games only once.
Mitch Keller, a right-handed pitcher, will start for the Pirates. In 2025, Keller (No. 23) has made 22 starts, allowing 52 earned runs and 120 hits over 127.0 innings. He has recorded 100 strikeouts and 33 walks, posting a 4-10 record with a 3.69 ERA. In July, Keller has six quality starts, conceding nine earned runs and 24 hits in 27.2 innings, resulting in a 2-0 record and a 2.93 ERA.
For the Rockies, right-hander Bradley Blalock will start. Blalock (No. 64) has appeared eight times this season (six as a starter), allowing 26 earned runs and 47 hits in 33.0 innings. He has struck out 16 batters and walked seven, compiling a 1-2 record with a 7.09 ERA. Over his two-year career, Blalock has pitched in 15 games (12 starts), giving up 46 earned runs and 82 hits in 63.2 innings, with a 2-5 record and a 6.50 ERA.
On a technical note, Colorado has lost 80 of its last 110 games overall, 38 of its last 54 home games, 13 of its last 20 games against NL Central opponents, and 32 of its last 47 day games.
Although the Pirates are currently last in the NL Central, they are in prime position to scoop up a win against the Rockies, who have the worst record in Major League Baseball. Take Pittsburgh with Keller. Thanks and best of luck, Tom.
