Rockies 5, Giants 2: Rox win behind Kyle Freeland and a scrappy late rally

The Colorado Rockies dinked and dunked their way to a comeback win over the San Francisco Giants on Monday night. In doing so, they got one back for Kyle Freeland to reward him for a second straight start in which he went toe-to-toe with Madison Bumgarner. After taking a 3-2 lead in the seventh inning, the Rockies went on to win 5-2.

Nobody in these circles is going to cry for Madison Bumgarner, but the rally that chased him didn’t exactly involve a lot of hard contact. Pat Valaika put a decent swing on his single, with DJ LeMahieu and Charlie Blackmon following with a jam-job that dropped in right field and a softly hit infield single, respectively.
