Luis Castillo’s slow start to the 2021 campaign was not helped by Coors Field. The first inning woes continued, as the Rockies scored three runs in the first. It all fell apart for Castillo in the fourth. The Rockies got a pair of cheap hits, and then poured it on against Castillo, scoring five more runs to chase him from the game.
That might not even have been the worst part of the game. Nick Senzel had to leave the game with a left heel contusion running into the wall in the first inning.
The Reds as they’ve shown all year didn’t go away quietly.
