Barnes came off the bench to lace a two-run eighth-inning triple off Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Chris Hatcher as the Rockies opened their three-game series against the Dodgers with a come-from-behind 7-5 victory.
“I was looking for three and trying to get another guy in scoring position,” Barnes said. “I got a pitch where I was looking and didn’t try to do too much with it.”
LA’s bullpen came into the night allowing just one run in their last 26.1 innings pitched. Colorado scored three times against Dodger relievers to earn the win.
