DENVER -- Brenton Doyle hit a walk-off, two-run homer in a five-run ninth inning and the Colorado Rockies overcame a nine-run first-inning deficit to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 17-16 on Friday night.
The Rockies are the sixth team in major league history to win after surrendering nine first-inning runs according to Elias Sports Bureau. Cleveland was the last to do it in 2006.
The Rockies are also the first team to win despite allowing 15 or more runs since the Boston Red Sox beat the Texas Rangers, 19-17, in August 2008, according to ESPN Research.
