For Lucas Gilbreath, the end to his streak of scoreless outings could not have come at a much worse time.
Max Muncy greeted Gilbreath by hammering the left-hander’s first pitch of the 10th inning for a two-run homer to provide the Los Angeles Dodgers with the winning margin in a 7-5, 10-inning victory against the Colorado Rockies Thursday afternoon at Coors Field.
The victory for Los Angeles (98-55) was the Dodgers’ second extra-inning win in three days against the Rockies (71-81) and allowed the defending World Series champs to capture the three-game series between the National League West rivals.
