It wasn’t Game 163, but for a Rockies team playing for the future, Monday felt like a flashback and an omen.
Colorado beat the Padres 4-3 in 10 innings in Monday’s series opener at Coors Field in a game delayed two hours and twenty minutes by rain that was eventually played in front of a smattering of patient, poncho’d fans.
The Rockies got a quality start from southpaw Austin Gomber, wasted it, then rallied to win in the extra frame when Ryan McMahon’s walk-off sacrifice fly brought home Brenton Doyle, who beat Juan Soto’s throw from shallow left field.
