If there was any team that needed a win — really, really needed a win — it was the Colorado Rockies. Their odds of avoiding another 100-loss season were sagging by the day, and they were drowning after their 10th consecutive loss at Coors Field.
Making things worse were Monday night's near win that ended in heartbreak thanks to a Colton Cowser bottom-of-the-ninth home run robbery.
But the Rockies came to play on Tuesday and finished the evening having defeated the Orioles 4-2 and ended that home-field losing streak — their first win at Coors Field since August 2.
"I think it was a good win," manager Warren Schaeffer said after the game. "It's good to see the boys get rewarded with a W tonight."
Jake McCarthy picked up where he left off on Monday night with a lead0ff double (28). He got to third, when, with two outs, TJ Rumfield took his 65th walk, leaving runners at the corners. However, Cole Carrigg flew out to second to end the threat.
