In a thrilling game at Coors Field, the Colorado Rockies managed to avoid a sweep by the St. Louis Cardinals with a come-from-behind 10-8 victory. Charlie Blackmon, who is nearing the end of his professional career, had a standout performance with three RBIs and three runs. Michael Toglia also contributed with three hits and two RBIs.
The Rockies struggled in the early innings, but a crucial two-run double from Ezequiel Tovar in the eighth inning sparked a five-run rally to tie the game. Tovar’s double was his 45th of the season, making him the National League leader in this category. Ryan McMahon then delivered the game-winning run with a double to right field, securing the victory for Colorado.
This win was a much-needed boost for the Rockies, who had lost five of their previous six games. The team showed resilience and determination in mounting a comeback against the Cardinals, showcasing their fighting spirit as the season comes to a close.
With Blackmon’s impressive performance and Tovar’s clutch hitting, the Rockies demonstrated their ability to compete and come out on top against tough opponents. As the season winds down, Colorado will look to build on this momentum and finish strong in their remaining games.
