Rookie Chase Anderson will look to make it four straight wins in his first four Major League starts when he and the Arizona Diamondbacks take on Jorge De La Rosa and the Colorado Rockies Tuesday night.
Chase Anderson won his third consecutive start last Wednesday against the San Diego Padres by pitching five innings against them and only allowing one earned run. He allowed eight hits in that start and struck out three while walking just one. Anderson is 3-0 in his young career, but he has allowed 17 hits and three home runs in 15.2 innings of work.
This will be the first time that Anderson will face any of the Rockies. So far, he has thrown his fastball 61.5 percent of the time and his changeup about 20 percent of the time.
Veteran left-hander Jorge De La Rosa went six strong innings in his last start and ended up beating the Philadelphia Phillies for his sixth win of the season. He allowed just one run in those six innings of work and struck out four while walking two. De La Rosa now has a 6-3 record on the season and his ERA is down to 3.66 after that strong start.
Cody Ross has had more success against De La Rosa than any of his Diamondback teammates by going 11-for-32 against him with a double, two home runs and five RBI.
