Tell me if you’ve heard this before: the Rockies lost last night 11-4 after giving up seven runs in the first two innings. And after that unfortunate game came unfortunate news: starter Noah Davis, who previously held a record-low 0.93 ERA, was placed on the IL with right elbow inflammation. He’s the second Rockies’ starter to go down with the injury this season... and we’re only 29 games in.
But anyways, Austin Gomber will pitch for the Rockies this afternoon as they look to avoid the sweep. In his last outing against Cleveland, Gomber tossed five shutout innings, allowing three hits, three walks and three strikeouts.
