What at terrible performance out of the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday afternoon. They finished up a series with the San Francisco Giants and dropped the finale by the score of 9-2. The Rockies were really never in the game as it was just a terrible performance by everyone on the team.
Starting pitcher Aaron Cook only lasted three innings before he was pulled. Cook allowed ten hits and six runs to take the loss and is now 16-9 on the year. Just one of those games that Cook simply didn’t have it and he got rocked hard. Steven Register gave up three more runs in the sixth inning as well.
As for the little offense that the Rockies did get, they scored singled runs in the second and fifth innings. Jeff Baker grounded into a fielders choice in the second inning and the scored Garret Atkins. In the fifth inning, Clint Barmes hit a solo home run. As a team, the Rockies only had four hits in the game as they struggled against Barry Zito for eighth innings and then Brad Hennessey in the ninth.
