Another Heartbreaker in Colorado
Fellow Giants fans, what a rollercoaster of emotions this game was! Heading into Coors Field, we were all hoping for a much-needed win, and for a good chunk of the game, it looked like we had it in the bag. The final score of 7-8 doesn’t quite capture the ups and downs we went through today against the Rockies. Building a Strong Lead Early
The first inning kept both teams level, with no runs scored. But the Giants absolutely stormed through the top of the 2nd inning! With some timely hits and capitalizing on the Rockies’ wild pitches, we saw Mike Yastrzemski and Dominic Smith effectively move up the bases. A solid performance by Logan Porter and Heliot Ramos had us leading 4-0. In the 5th inning, Dominic Smith showed his strength once again, blasting a massive 433-foot homer scoring Wilmer Flores and Yastrzemski to place us ahead 7-2.Rocky Rockies Comeback
However, as is often with games at Coors Field, no lead feels safe until it’s over. The Rockies chipped away at our lead, starting with a home run in the 6th by Mickey Moniak. The 7th inning became troublesome when Thairo Estrada doubled, driving two of their players in, narrowing the lead to 5-7. Our bullpen couldn't hold as the bottom of the 9th unfolded in a way all too familiar; a fielder's choice that led to chaos for us and saw Sam Hilliard and Ryan McMahon score, giving the Rockies an 8-7 win. 
What’s Next, Giants Fans? 🡰
Once again, we find ourselves pondering the "what ifs" in this game. The Giants showed flashes of what makes this team great, but if we're going to contend consistently, closing games strongly is an area we must tackle head-on. Let's keep the faith - baseball is a long season, and there’s always more magic waiting to happen. Let's regroup and prepare for the next challenge. Go Giants!
