Chances are Austin Gomber won’t soon forget his first appearance on the mound as a member of the Colorado Rockies.

Gomber, who was obtained by the Colorado Rockies in the offseason trade that sent Nolan Arenado to St. Louis, allowed just one hit in a three-inning stint in his inaugural start for the Rockies.

Unfortunately, the left-hander issued a career-high seven walks in those three innings, including four in the first inning alone.
