Rockies split two games with Giants to close homestand

The Colorado Rockies concluded their seven game homestand with a series against the San Francisco Giants over the weekend. The Rox and Giants traded wins in the first two contests, but the series finale scheduled for Sunday afternoon was postponed due to inclement weather.

Game 1- Rockies 6, Giants 4: Eddie Butler started for the Rox in the series opener. After playing with fire with a high walk rate in his last few starts, Butler settled down and had a decent outing. He lasted six innings, giving up four earned runs on nine hits. He walked only two and struck out three while earning the win for the Rockies.
