The Rockies finally found the answer for the 12-game losing streak against the Giants: The Cron Zone.
After 55 at-bats without a homer, C.J. Cron hit one when it mattered, breaking up a 3-3 tie in the eighth inning on Wednesday with a 454-foot, two-run bomb that ended up being the game-winner in the 5-3 win. The homer was his 10th of the season, which leads the National League. This one came on a 3-1 changeup from José Álvarez.
Eighth-inning magic
After not having a baserunner for five innings, the Rockies finally got something going in the eighth.
