Freeland (8-4) got the win Saturday against the Giants, allowing just one earned run in six innings. He struck out three batters and allowed eight hits over 94 pitches.
The southpaw had a nice bounce-back outing Saturday after a shaky start against the Pirates earlier in the week. He was able to work around some uncomfortable situations and hold the Giants to one run despite allowing 10 hitters to get on base. Freeland's ERA now sits at 3.42, which is the best among qualified Rockies starters. What's more, Freeland has shown a strong comfort level in the hitter-friendly environment of Coors Field, where he now has a 3.21 ERA. Freeland is lined up to oppose Hyun-Jin Ryu at Dodger Stadium next Friday.
