Rockies’ rally wasted, Royals score twice in ninth off closer Daniel Bard

When LoDo Magic disappears you know the Rockies are in a rut.

The Royals’ wild victory Sunday afternoon at Coors Field was proof of that.

The Royals scored two runs off Rockies closer Daniel Bard to pull out an 8-7 victory. Salvador Perez delivered a bases-loaded, two-run single to provide the victory.

Coming off a tough 1-5 road trip, Colorado figured it would get better at home. After all, the club was 12-6 at Coors entering Sunday. But the Royals — eight games under .500 with a 12-20 record — took two of three games over the weekend to win the series.
