LAST OUTING: In Colorado's 2-1 loss to San Francisco on Saturday, Hampton allowed 4 hits and 1 earned run in 8 innings. He struck out 7, but didn't earn a decision. At the plate, Hampton was 0-for-3.

NEXT SCHEDULED APPEARANCE: Today vs. Los Angeles.

THE SKINNY: Hampton is starting to catch fire. Too bad his team is in last place. In his past three starts, Hampton is 1-1 with a 2.11 ERA. His strikeouts are up; his walks and home runs allowed are down.

STAT OF THE WEEK: Opponents are homerless against Hampton in his past two starts. In his previous three starts, he was touched for six dingers.
