Rodgers, playing primarily at second base, has showcased a remarkable average of .500 across the last three games, making him a pivotal figure in the Rockies' lineup.
On the opposing side, Jose Altuve of the Astros has been equally impressive. The second baseman hit an outstanding .600 in one of the previous games, highlighting his critical role in the Astros' offensive strategy. His consistent performance, with an average of .333 over the last three outings, underscores his importance to his team.
The Rockies have seen notable contributions from other players as well. Ryan McMahon, playing at third base, demonstrated his prowess by hitting .750 and securing a home run in one game, proving his ability to change the course of a match with his batting skills. Similarly, Ezequiel Tovar's batting average of .600 and slugging percentage that soared to 1.2 in one game further solidify the Rockies' offensive lineup.
For the Astros, Yordan Alvarez and Jeremy Peña have been standout performers as well.
