McMahon’s pinch-hit home run in the seventh inning lit a five-run fuse for the Colorado Rockies, sparking a come-from-behind 6-2 win over the San Francisco Giants. The win was Colorado’s sixth straight against San Francisco, including five straight victories at Coors Field. It also kept them alone at the top of the National League West as the end of the regular season creeps ever closer.
Of course, Rockies fans remember McMahon’s first pinch-hit homer of the season, an August 10 shot against former Colorado pitcher Zac Rosscup and the Los Angeles Dodgers that propelled the Rockies to a 5-4 victory.
