Elias Díaz capped Colorado's six-run eighth inning with a tiebreaking RBI double, and the Rockies beat the San Diego Padres 10-9 on Thursday. Elehuris Montero and Hunter Goodman homered for Colorado, which earned a split of the four-game series. Brenton Doyle and Brendan Rodgers each had three of the Rockies' 14 hits.
Jeff Hoffman is built as much like a linebacker as he is a pitcher and it mattered on Monday night. "I wish baseball was more of a contact sport," he joked after making a game-saving tag at the plate.
Troubleshooting the Rockies' early-season woes leads to a quick and simple conclusion: Three players expected to provide voltage to the offense have short-circuited. • Kris Bryant is hitting .100 (4 for 40) with one home run and four RBIs. • Brendan Rodgers has a .174 average (8 for 46) with no home runs. • Nolan Jones is hitting .157 (8 for 51) and has 23 strikeouts in 47 plate appearances.
