Feltner is making his 10th start of the season, his fourth at Coors Field. Sunday will mark his first career start vs. the D- Backs. He’s coming off a so- so start in Colorado’s 16- 5 win over St. Louis, allowing five runs on four hits with three walks over 5 2/ 3 innings. Feltner is 2- 1 with a 5.68 ERA in three starts and one relief appearance at Coors Field this season.

After a shaky major league debut, Henry rebounded big time in his second start, allowing just one run over seven innings in the Diamondbac­ks’ 6- 4 win over the Pirates on Tuesday at Chase Field. He allowed four hits, walked two and struck out three. Henry, who was selected by Arizona in the second round of the 2019 draft, was a polished pitcher coming out of the University of Michigan. He was promoted from Triple- A Reno to make his big- league debut on Aug. 3 at Cleveland. He worked five innings, giving up four runs on four hits, the big blow a three- run homer by Amed Rosario in the fifth inning.

Trending: Brendan Rodgers entered Saturday night’s game leading all National League second basemen in hits ( 115), RBIS ( 56), extra- base hits ( 37) and total bases ( 176).

At issue: Colorado’s bullpen was giving up 3.99 walks per nine innings enter Saturday, the fifthhighe­st rate in the majors and the third- highest in the National League.
