Padres rough up Rockies, like a billion to 3.

San Diego takes advantage of hitter friendly Coors field to mount up an impressive victory of their mountain-bound NL west rivals.

Coors Field is known for allowing a lot of hits, dingers and runs. When you are the visiting team and you get 5 runs in those first ups you know one of two things is coming: Either you are top of your game and about to mash all night at a mile high and bury the Rockies or you are in for a slug fest with lots of trips to the bullpen and lead change after lead change.
