Cleveland Guardians at Colorado Rockies game discussion: Foster Griffin vs. Tomoyuki Sugano
Can the Rockies avoid another sweep while they celebrate Larry Walker’s statue unveiling?
DENVER, Colorado - August 17: Tomoyuki Sugano, a key player for the Colorado Rockies, prepares to take the mound against the Cleveland Guardians. The Rockies have been struggling recently, losing multiple games in a row and eight overall at home. Their eight consecutive losses at Coors Field are second-longest in franchise history, tied with a nine-game losing streak in 1993.
Sugano, who has been a strong performer since June 2, faces off against Guardians' left-hander Foster Griffin. Griffin, a 31-year-old pitcher, has had a career resurgence after his Tommy John surgery, posting a 14-4 record and 3.18 ERA in 25 starts for the Guardians. This is their first meeting in Sugano's professional career. Can the Rockies avoid yet another sweep before celebrating Larry Walker’s statue unveiling?
