"There were a few mistakes," Cueto said through an interpreter. "The ball was not breaking the way I wanted. But that's what Spring Training is for."
Cueto's troubles began when Gonzalez lashed a two-run homer with one out in the first inning. One inning later, consecutive singles by Daniel Descalso and Kyle Parker scored Nick Hundley. That ended Cueto's afternoon. Adalberto Mejia, the 11th-ranked prospect in San Francisco's system, surrendered Parra's two-run single.
Back-to-back doubles by Hundley and Descalso accounted for Colorado's fourth-inning run.
