Rockies blow lead, lose to Giants, 10-7, in 10 innings

The slipper didn’t fit.

With rookie Michael Toglia cranking up the power and turning on the juice, the Rockies were primed for a late-season Cinderella story featuring a rookie cast Monday night at Coors Field.

But in the 10th inning, right-hander Gavin Hollowell, thrown into the fire in his big-league debut, gave up a two-out, three-run homer to Thairo Estrada as the Giants rallied for a 10-7 victory.

Hollowell struck out the first two hitters he faced — Luis Gonzalez and J.D. Davis — but then his command deserted him. He walked LaMonte Wade Jr. and then served up the homer to Estrada on a 3-2 sinker.
