The Colorado Rockies battled throughout the game, but a few missed opportunities kept the New York Mets in the contest long enough for Francisco Lindor to come through with a late, game-deciding hit that sent the Coors Field crowd home disappointed.

Antonio Senzatela entered Friday’s contest with an 12.00 ERA in the first inning. It’s no wonder, then, that manager Warren Schaeffer decided to experiment with Ryan Rolison, himself a former starter, opening the game. As it turns out, it was a solid plan.
Rolison allowed a two-out Juan Soto single and naught else as he blanked New York in his sole inning, then handed the baton to Senzatela.
