Rockies’ rally comes up short in 7-6 loss to Nationals at Coors Field

The Rockies rocked LoDo Saturday night with a four-run ninth inning.

But the rally fizzled when Carl Edwards struck out Kris Bryant with two men on base, leaving the Rockies as 7-6 losers in front of 34,503 fans at Coors Field.

The Rockies, losers of five of their last six games on the heels of a 2-0 start, got another shaky performance from a starting pitcher and received a pedestrian performance from its offense until Mike Moustakas crushed a two-run homer to right field in the ninth. It was Moustakas’ first homer in a Rockies uniform.

That set the fuse for Colorado’s four-run ninth inning.
