Colorado LHP Francis faces favorite opponent
Apr 3, 2007 - 2:23 PM Arizona (1-0) at Colorado (0-1) 8:35 pm EDTDENVER (Ticker) -- Colorado Rockies lefthander Jeff Francis looks to continue his dominance of the Arizona Diamondbacks when the National League West rivals meet on Tuesday.
Francis has won six of his seven starts against Arizona, the most wins he has against any opponent.
Francis, who signed a four-year $13.25 million contract extension in the offseason, was 13-11 with a 4.16 ERA in 2006.
Livan Hernandez starts for Arizona. Acquired from the Washington Nationals last August, Hernandez is 1-3 with an 8.05 ERA in nine games at Coors Field.
Hernandez is one of just three pitchers to make 30 or more starts in each of the last nine seasons. The other two are Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine.
Eric Byrnes hit a two-run single in the eighth inning to lift the Diamondbacks to an 8-6 win in Monday's season opener.
