Trevor Story hit the baseball this week like it’s the size of a beach ball.
Five games. Four home runs.
His 422-foot blast gave the Rockies a fifth-inning lead on Saturday at the Milwaukee Brewers. But Colorado pitching woes ultimately stymied Story’s recent power surge in a 10-4 loss. Colorado starter Antonio Senzatela struggled with two early balks and lasted just five innings. The bullpen inherited a one-run lead and blew it.
The Rockies (31-46) are now 6-30 on the road this season. Colorado closes its current series on Sunday at Milwaukee (44-33).
On Saturday, Colorado’s talented leadoff duo of Raimel Tapia and Yonathan Daza produced instant offense.
