Rockies 1, Giants 0. On fireworks night, no less.
The star-spangled stars were easy to find on this perfect Wednesday night at Coors Field. Starter Tyler Anderson pitched eight brilliant innings, and catcher Chris Iannetta accounted for the game’s only run with a solo homer in the seventh.
It was just the 10th 1-0 game in Coors Field history. The last time the Rockies won 1-0 via a solo home run was on July 18, 2010, at Cincinnati. The batter? Iannetta.
Closer Wade Davis preserved the milestone, despite giving up a single to Andrew McCutchen and a walk to Buster Posey to put the tying run at second.
