On Friday night, the Colorado Rockies won in San Diego by a score of 3-2 to break their nine game losing streak. The win was recorded by Tim Melville, who recorded eight strikeouts, a career high, in 5 2/3 innings while allowing only two runs, has been the Rockies *only* saving grace on the pitching front in this stretch of the worst baseball in franchise history.
In fact, in their last 30 games (including Friday), the Rockies are 8-22. Games started by Tim Melville and games facing the Miami Marlins account for six of those eight victories.
