Two homers help Rockies stay hot vs. Giants

The Rockies tacked on three runs in the seventh with a Desmond sacrifice fly, a Raimel Tapia single that Hunter Pence misplayed in right field, and an Alexi Amarista RBI double.

The Giants hit three homers of their own, including a 446-foot shot over the right-center-field wall by San Francisco starter Jeff Samardzija, the longest home run by a pitcher since Statcast™ was introduced in 2015. On the mound, Samardzija didn't fare as well, surrendering a season-high eight runs on 11 hits over six-plus innings.

Rockies starter Antonio Senzatela gave up five runs on six hits, walking one and striking out six over six innings.
