When it comes to following Spring Training games, it’s more about individual results and position battles than it is the Colorado Rockies’ record or the final score on a given day. So it is that the Rockies lost 6-5 to the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday, a game which I watched part of, and I still had to look up the final score.
The reason is because I was mostly focused on how Jon Gray looked in his start. And he looked great. Thomas Harding notes in this report from Arizona that Gray caught an issue with cross-firing in his delivery and made the necessary adjustment en route to striking out five batters over four scoreless innings.
