Rockies' Fourth-Inning Power Surge Stuns Padres at PETCO Park

The Colorado Rockies secured a victory against the San Diego Padres with a final score of 4-2. This win brings the Rockies to a record of 41-107, while the Padres stand at 80-68. The game took place under the lights at PETCO Park, drawing an attendance of 40,014 fans.

First Inning

The game began with both teams struggling to find their rhythm offensively. The Rockies were unable to get on base in their first inning, while the Padres managed just one run from one hit. Despite this early lead by San Diego, it was clear that both teams were still warming up.

Fourth Inning

The fourth inning proved pivotal for the Rox as they unleashed an offensive burst that would ultimately decide the game's outcome. Blaine Crim was instrumental during this inning, hitting a home run and driving in three runs. His performance was complemented by Kyle Farmer's consistent batting average of .1000 from previous games and his ability to maintain pressure on opposing pitchers.

Seventh Inning

As the game progressed into later innings, both teams tightened their defenses significantly. The seventh inning saw no additional runs scored by either side despite multiple hits from each team—two for Colorado and one for San Diego—demonstrating solid pitching performances from both bullpens.

Ninth Inning

In what could have been a comeback moment for Slam Diego during their last chance at bat in the ninth inning, they managed another run but fell short due to effective pitching strategies employed by Juan Mejia and Jimmy Herget who maintained zero earned runs throughout previous appearances.
