Gray, the Rockies' top pick in 2013, threw 33 pitches in the Mariners' two-run first. He finished with 77 pitches in four innings, with five hits, three runs (two earned) and four strikeouts against two walks. Another top Rockies pick, Kyle Parker (2010), delivered his first Major League home run, off Mayckol Guaipe to lead off the sixth.
