Rockies blow two-run lead in ninth, fall to Brewers on the road in 11th inning

With a chance to win two consecutive road games for the first time this year, the Rockies blew it. Again.

A 4-0 lead disappeared, and a two-run ninth-inning advantage was squandered for the team with the worst road record in baseball.

Milwaukee rallied at home for a 5-4 win in 11 innings, giving the Rockies yet another dispiriting loss in a season full of them.

“We battled. We scored four. We had a lead with seven outs to go and we couldn’t nail it down,” Rockies manager Bud Black said. “That’s baseball. It happens.”

This happened: Keston Hiura’s line drive sacrifice fly to left center with the bases loaded scored Manny Pina with the winning run.
