Rockies RHP Antonio Senzatela (46, 5.01) at Giants RHP Dereck Rodriguez (63, 2.35), 2 p.m. Sunday; ATTRM, 630 AM For all of the concern over lefthander Tyler Anderson’s slump, Senzatela has not been pitching very well either. He’s not recorded a win since July 28 and hasn’t won a road game since April 27 when he was working out of the bullpen. In his six starts since Aug. 2, the righthande­r is 03 with a 5.01 ERA and Colorado is 24. On the plus side, Senzatela is 40 with a 3.57 ERA in seven games (five starts) vs. the Giants, and he’s 10 with a 3.00 ERA in two career starts at AT&T Park. Rodriquez, the son of Hall of Fame catcher Ivan “Pudge” Rodriguez, is having a breakout rookie season, tossing 13 quality starts in 16 outings. His 2.35 ERA is the seventhlow­est in the big leagues, among pitchers with at least 100 innings. The 26yearold righthande­r made his bigleague debut against the Rockies at Coors Field on May 29, allowing four runs over 3L innings. He pitched at Coors again on Sept. 4 in Colorado’s 62 win, coming away with a nodecision. Rodriguez gave up just one run on six hits over six innings.
