The Dodgers and Rockies will meet up for the first time in 2019 with a weekend series in Colorado this weekend.  It will be their first meeting since game 163 in October.

It’s safe to say that the Dodgers and Rockies do not need any introductions.  The two teams have had their fair share of battles over the last few seasons and in 2018 they played a game 163 to decide who would take home the NL West title.  The Dodgers ended up winning that game and eventually went on to win another National League pennant.  The Rockies won the wildcard game against the Cubs before losing to the Brewers.

This season the Dodgers and Rockies are the two main contenders for the NL West title yet again.  While the Diamondbacks were in the hunt until the end last year, they have gone into a rebuild of sorts.  The Padres are on the rise but still a couple of years away from contention which leaves the Dodgers and Rockies as the primary NL West contenders for the foreseeable future.  Here are the three keys to a Dodger series victory in the nightmare known as Coors Field.
