German Marquez shined for the Colorado Rockies through 2.1 innings on Friday at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick. However, from there, the Arizona Diamondbacks had his number.
Jon Jay hit a sun-aided double to left and Carson Kelly followed with a laser off the top of the left field wall. That back-to-back sequence doubled the amount of hits Marquez had allowed all spring (just one in three innings heading into Friday) and was the first run the 25-year-old right-hander had allowed this spring.
You can look at the bad side that Marquez allowed three hits to the final five batters he faced and gave up two runs before the frame ended.
