Weekly updates, quotes, news, and notes from the Hartford Yard Goats, the Double-A Eastern League affiliate of the Colorado Rockies from July 26 to Aug. 1.
Much like their parent club, the Hartford Yard Goats (61-45) have been playing excellent baseball since the All-Star Break. The Rockies' Double-A affiliate is 13-5 since the Eastern League All-Star Game after going 5-1 last week (Sunday’s game was rained out). The games were mostly tight affairs as the Yard Goats’ stellar pitching staff continues to cover up for an offense that seems to be caught scoring just enough runs to get the victories.
