Kris Bryant and Jose Urena were late to the party but they sure have spiced things up for the Rockies.
The Rockies shut out the Pirates, 2-0, Saturday afternoon at Coors Field, extending their winning streak to a season-high five games.
Bryant, out for much of the first half of the season with a back injury, was 3-for-3 with a walk and drove in a run. Urena, a journeyman who began the season in Milwaukee’s bullpen before being cut, pitched six scoreless innings.
Closer Daniel Bard issued a leadoff walk in the ninth but emerged unscathed to record his 20th save in 22 opportunities.
