It doesn’t happen that often, but every once in a while everyone has a good game. That was almost the type of game the Rockies played Sunday afternoon, as they beat the reds 8-2 to take the series and maintain possession of first place in the National League West.

German Márquez pitched an excellent seven innings. It was his first really standout game of the season, and it’s the type of performance the Rockies will really need from the middle part of their rotation to stay competitive throughout the summer.
