The Colorado Rockies offense is still searching for that big hit in that big moment. They are still leaving far too many men on base, failing to cash in opportunities that their dynamic top of the order so frequently provides. Despite that, the Rockies held the lead for most of the night but Greg Holland blew it again in the ninth, giving the Kansas City Royals a 6-4 win in soul-crushing fashion for Rockies fans.
Colorado got another fantastic outing from a rookie pitcher, Antonio Senzatela in yet another return to the rotation was sporting new-look sliders and curveballs and while he did give up a fair few hits to a pesky Royals offense, was able to show just how good he could be if he ever gets control of those pitches enough to keep hitters off of his fastball.
