Colorado Going for the Sweep Against San Francisco Sunday Afternoon

Colorado Going for the Sweep Against San Francisco Sunday Afternoon

Rockies enjoying four-game win streak 

Colorado has been able to roll off four straight wins even without shortstop Troy Tulowitzki. This is a season-high win streak for the Rockies, who look to sweep the Giants on Sunday for the first time in six seasons. They will ask struggling righty Juan Nicasio to complete the sweep on the road. Nicasio is 5-5 with a 5.70 ERA this season. He allowed 10 earned runs against the Braves his last time on the mound.

Giants sitting pretty atop the West

Despite their struggles on the mound in the ninth inning the last couple of games, the Giants are still strongly entrenched atop the NL West. The Dodgers are the closest to them, but are 6.5 games back of the leaders. San Francisco will look for ace Madison Bumgarner to stop this brief, two-game slide, on Sunday. He is 8-4 with a 2.67 ERA in 2014. Bumgarner is one of the top starters in the National League this year and is working on a career year.

We will place our bets on this NL contest between the Rockies and the Giants over at TopBet.eu, where the Giants are favored at home. We still like Colorado to win this game, which is why we will bet 10 percent of our bankroll on the Rockies and the OVER seven total runs scored at -120 on Sunday afternoon as the league celebrates Father’s Day.
