The Giants, fresh off a 5-1 homestand, are right in the thick of the NL wild-card race. Entering Thursday's slate of games, San Francisco is 0.5 games back of the Arizona Diamondbacks for the third and final wild-card spot. The Giants, Cincinnati Reds and Miami Marlins -- all within one game of the Diamondbacks -- now are all off Thursday and will watch Arizona wrap up a four-game series against the New York Mets.
Coors Field has been friendly to the Giants in recent years. They haven't lost a game there since Aug. 20 last year and are 17-5 in Denver since the start of the 2021 season. The Giants swept the Rockies in a three-game road series back in June and swept them at Oracle Park last weekend.
