The Colorado Rockies had a chance to top off a lengthy road trip with a series victory this afternoon after two excellent wins against the San Diego Padres. Unfortunately, they fell behind early after a rough outing from Austin Gomber, and ended up losing 8-1 for a series tie.
Austin Gone-ber
Coming off back-to-back quality starts after his return from the injured list, Austin Gomber kicked off the game in promising fashion with a four pitch strikeout of Tommy Pham. Things quickly devolved from there. Gomber walked Adam Frazier on five pitches, then gave up a single to Manny Machado.
