Rockies Recap: Brenton Doyle hits grand slam, Benny Montgomery shines in win over D-backs

Friday at Salt River Fields

On the mound: Starter Bradley Blaylock gave Colorado two efficient scoreless innings in its Cactus League opener. The right-hander struck out two and walked one. … Anthony Molina was not nearly as sharp, leaving the ball over the plate and Arizona took advantage, belting the right-hander for three runs on four hits over one inning.

At the plate: Center fielder Brenton Doyle, who’ll be the Rockies’ leadoff hitter this season, got off to a nice start, hitting a first-pitch fastball from right-hander Gerardo Gutierrez for a grand slam in the fourth inning.
