There’s no crying in baseball, but what happened to Ryan Feltner on Saturday night was a crying shame.
For three innings, the Rockies’ right-hander was crisp, efficient and in total command of all of his pitches. Feltner illustrated, for a small slice of the game, why manager Bud Black and the Rockies’ brass love his stuff.
But …
It all caved in on Feltner in the fourth inning when the Mariners sent nine men to the plate and scored five runs en route to a 9-2 laugher at T-Mobile Park.
The Rockies (5-10) have lost four consecutive games and fell to 2-6 on the road.
