In their second doubleheader in nine games, the Rockies fell again. This marks their 15th loss time in 18 games and ninth loss in 12 games since the All-Star Break. However, it was the first time they lost by one run since the second game of last week’s doubleheader against the Giants. Despite the result, there were some bright spots.
Jon Gray threw just 76 pitches through four innings before being lifted. He left the game with four strikeouts and five walks (one intentional), matching a career-high for the third time. The only inning in which he didn’t hit a batter was the third inning.
