Marte has three hits in loss
Arizona fell by a count of 8-1 at home Tuesday night against Colorado to drop to 38-36 overall and 14-17 at home. Ketel Marte helped lead the Diamondbacks offense as he went 3-for-4. David Peralta was 1-for-2 with two walks and an RBI. Jarrod Dyson went 1-for-5 and scored a run. Merrill Kelly suffered the loss as he surrendered six earned runs on eight hits with five strikeouts and no walks over six innings.

MLB Betting Trends
Colorado
The Rockies are 8-2 in their last 10 games versus the NL West. Colorado is 4-1 in the last five Gray starts.
Arizona
The Diamondbacks are 7-2 in their last nine Wednesday games. Arizona is 35-16 in the last 51 Greinke home starts.
Prediction:
Greinke has been in great form all season and typically pitches his best at home. While Gray occasionally suffers from bad luck and Coors Field, I still don't see him quite matching up with Greinke today. Expect the Diamondbacks offense to do enough to support their ace here.
