Marquez's Coors struggles continue in defeat

DENVER -- Rockies right-hander German Marquez seems to have lost the key to pitching at Coors Field.

Marquez gave up five runs -- one on a Lorenzo Cain home run on his first pitch -- on 12 hits in just 4 2/3 innings of a 5-2 loss to the Brewers on Thursday night.

Marquez has a 10.34 ERA over 15 2/3 frames at home and a 1.96 ERA in 23 road innings. He attempted to stay effectively wild when he kept the Rockies' deficit at 2-1 after four innings, but Travis Shaw singled, Jesus Aguilar doubled and Hernan Perez singled them both in to begin a three-run fifth inning that chased Marquez.
