Austin Gomber returned to the mound for the first time in more than a month yesterday at the big league level and it went pretty darn well. Not only did he lead the Rockies to a series split - a much-needed win going into a ten-game road trip - but he did so by only giving up three hits. Yes, they were all home runs, but solo home runs! The damage was minimal. Germán Márquez’s All-Star appearance allowed him to hog the Rockies pitching headlines, but Gomber’s return is an opportunity for us to look at just how good he’s been this year.
This Austin Gomber guy ain’t half bad…knock on wood
