Chad Bettis and Edwin Jackson were both tough to hit on Sunday afternoon, carrying dueling no-hit bids well into the game … and both ending up with a no-decision in a 3-2 win for the Colorado Rockies over the San Diego Padres.
Charlie Blackmon broke up Jackson’s shutout, no-hitter, and perfect game with one swing in the top of the fourth inning, absolutely hammering his 25th home run of the season and giving the Rockies a 1-0 lead.
Blackmon was right back at it again in the fifth, lining a two-out single that scored Nick Hundley who led off the inning with a double.
