Rockies lose to the Padres as San Diego's Matt Kemp hits for cycle

It was another one of those kind of nights at Coors Field. The kind where baseballs seemed jet propelled.

And it was another one of those kind of losses for the hometown Rockies. The kind where the bullpen opens the flood gates with the game on the line.

The Friday night final from LoDo in front of 33,697 fans: San Diego 9, Colorado 5.

To add history to Colorado's misery, Matt Kemp slugged a run-scoring triple in the ninth inning off Justin Miller to become the first player in Padres history to hit for the cycle.
