PITTSBURGH — The Rockies’ 9-3 victory against the Pirates on Wednesday night at PNC Park was the kind of tantalizing performance that showed what the Rockies are capable of when they string all of the elements together.
Solid starting pitching? Check. Jon Gray allowed three runs on seven hits over seven innings. He stuck out seven and walked only one.
Power hitting? Yep. Daniel Murphy hit a three-run homer in the first inning, and Tony Wolters ripped a three-run shot into the right-field seats in the third.
Timely hitting?
