Rockies Break Road Losing Streak, Snap Skid with Gritty Win Over Astros

The Colorado Rockies ended their six-game road losing streak with a hard-fought victory against the Houston Astros. The teams pitching held the Astros to just two runs, with Juan Mejia starting and Chase Dollander delivering a standout performance from the bullpen. Dollander fired five scoreless innings, striking out a career-high nine batters with impressive fastballs and breaking balls.

At the plate, the Rockies demonstrated patience, striking out only five times and drawing six walks. Tyler Freeman, Hunter Goodman, and Brenton Doyle led the offense, with Freeman going three-for-five and Goodman hitting his fifth home run of the season. Doyle also stole two bases.

This win comes after a challenging road trip marked by injuries and overworked relievers, providing a much-needed boost in morale as the team heads into a tough homestand. The Rockies will face the Dodgers in a four-game series, with Tomoyuki Sugano set to start against Tyler Glasnow at 6:40 PM Mountain time tomorrow.
