Despite some early sparks, we couldn't maintain the momentum and ultimately fell 3-1 at Coors Field.Early Lead
The game started on a high note for us. Mike Trout doubled to right field right out of the gate, setting the tone in the top of the first. Jo Adell followed with a crucial RBI single, driving Trout home and giving us an early 1-0 lead.
Unfortunately, we couldn't capitalize further with runners on base after that, but it was still a promising start.Struggles from the Mound
Our pitching staff held firm at first, cruising through the initial innings. But it was the bottom of the fourth where the tables turned. A powerful shot from Blaine Crim put the Rockies ahead 2-1 with a home run to right-center. Our guys kept battling, yet the Rockies managed to tack on an insurance run in the eighth, leaving us down 3-1 before heading into the ninth.Missed Opportunities
We had our chances; Taylor Ward and Jo Adell continued to be threats on the bases, but it seemed every time we had momentum, the Rockies were there to stop us in our tracks. A few crucial strikeouts and a double play in the ninth inning extinguished our hopes of a comeback, despite Adell's best efforts to ignite a rally.Closing Thoughts
