Los Angeles jumped ahead in the opening frame when Adell lined an RBI single to right, bringing home Trout. That was all they could manage, though, as Freeland settled down and stranded runners in scoring position.
Colorado evened things up in the second after Karros’ sac fly plated Crim. Two innings later, Crim put the Rockies in front hammering a solo shot to right-center (402 feet) to make it 2-1.
Both starters had kept traffic under control aside from the early scoring. Caden Dana has worked around some walks but has limited damage while Freeland has struck out hitters in key spots to hold us at bay. Overall, a very quiet game from both sides.
In the 8th for Colorado, Crim grounded to third and Moniak scored. This boosted the lead to 1-3 for the Rockies. Angels looked to strike back and go on a run.
Unfortunately, we couldn’t go on a run. 1-3 Rockies.
