For the 22nd time this season, the Colorado Rockies (7-35) scored two runs or less. That is the highest number of games this season and highlighted a night where the pitching was immaculate and the offense was absent in a 4-1 loss to the Texas Rangers (22-21).
Quality start for Freeland
Needing a bounce-back start, Kyle Freeland (0-6, 6.15 ERA) didn’t come out of the gate strong. The first two batters singled against him before Josh Jung clobbered a three-run home run to right center field to put the Rangers up 3-1. After that, Freeland settled in and cruised through the Rangers' lineup.
