The starting rotation has taken the Rockies on a roller coaster ride this season, but the bullpen has mostly been steady and dependable.
It was again Tuesday night in the Rockies’ 5-4 win over the Marlins before an announced crowd of 19,470 at Coors Field. Jake Bird, Brent Stuter and Pierce Johnson held off the Marlins for 3 1/3 innings as the Rockies beat Miami in LoDo for the 10th time in the last 11 games.
Johnson gave up a run in the ninth and was in trouble but held on to notch his 10th save in 10 chances.
