Rockies LHP Tyler Anderson (6-3, 3.69 ERA) at Brewers RHP Freddy Peralta (4-2, 3.61), 5:10 p.m. Saturday; ATTRM, 850 AM

Anderson has been a consistent and productive pitcher over his last six starts, save for a terrible seventh inning Monday at St. Louis. Anderson walked three consecutiv­e batters, allowing the Cardinals back into a game that Colorado eventually lost on a walk-off home run in the 10th inning. Still, over his past six outings, the left-hander has allowed just seven earned runs over 41L innings while striking out 40. Over that span, his ERA dropped from 4.23 to 3.69. But Anderson had better be careful pitching to Ryan Braun, who is 3-for-6 with two home runs against him. Peralta allowed one earned run over four innings in Milwaukee’s win over the Dodgers on Monday but did not factor in the decision. He only gave up three hits, but needed 98 pitches to get through his short outing. Peralta dominated the Rockies in his big-league debut May 13 at Coors Field, holding them to one hit and striking out 13 over 5M innings. Sunday: Rockies RHP Jon Gray (9-7, 4.99 ERA) at Brewers LHP Wade Miley (2-1, 1.53), 12:10 p.m., ATTRM
