This performance is complemented by an outstanding slugging percentage of 1.667, showcasing his power at the plate.

Predictions Based on Recent Performances


Given McMahon's recent surge and overall contributions from both teams' lineups, predicting the outcome of this game is challenging. However, if McMahon can maintain his high level of play and receive ample support from his teammates, especially from pitchers like Antonio Senzatela who has shown promise despite mixed results in recent outings, the Rockies have a strong chance of securing a win.


Conversely, the Cardinals will rely heavily on their seasoned players' experience and skill to counteract the Rockies' momentum. Players like Matthew Liberatore could play pivotal roles in limiting Colorado's scoring opportunities.
