Rockies Game Ends in Wild 9th-Inning Walk-Off: Highlights, Final Score & Must-See Moments
• Hot Trendy News
DENVER — The Colorado Rockies’ bid for just their tenth win of the season came up short Sunday afternoon as the New York Yankees edged them 4-3 in a tense rubber match at Coors Field.
First-inning fireworks
• Yankees leadoff man Paul Goldschmidt singled and later scored on Cody Bellinger’s fielder’s-choice grounder.
• The Rockies answered immediately. Rookie Jordan Beck ripped a double to right and sprinted home on a wild pitch from Will Warren. Two pitches later, Ryan McMahon’s RBI groundout plated Ezequiel Tovar for a 2-1 Colorado lead.
Volpe, Escarra swing momentum
Anthony Volpe opened the second with a booming triple to the 415-foot gap, and catcher J.C. Escarra’s opposite-field double tied the contest. From there Warren and Rockies right-hander Antonio Senzatela traded zeros until the fifth.
Judge delivers again
Aaron Judge, fresh off a two-homer night, laced a go-ahead RBI double off reliever Jake Bird, scoring Goldschmidt. Two batters later Jasson Domínguez lifted a sacrifice fly to give New York a 4-2 cushion.
Late push falls short
Brenton Doyle energized the crowd of 38,476 with a sixth-inning RBI double that cut the deficit to one. The Rockies put the tying run aboard in both the seventh and ninth, but Yankees setup man Jonathan Loáisiga and closer Mark Leiter Jr. slammed the door, combining for five strikeouts over the final three frames.
Pitching notes
• Winner: Warren (5 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 6 K) improved to 4-2 and lowered his ERA to 3.38.
• Loser: Senzatela (4 ⅓ IP, 7 H, 3 ER) fell to 0-6.
• Save: Leiter Jr. recorded his 12th in 12 chances.
What it means for Colorado
Colorado drops to 9-43, 23 games behind the Dodgers in the National League West. Manager Bud Black’s club has lost 11 of 13 despite competitive showings in the past two days. The bullpen remains a bright spot; Jake Bird’s scoreless streak was snapped at 11 ⅔ innings, but Justin Lawrence and Jimmy Herget combined for 3 ⅔ shutout innings to keep the game within reach.
Key numbers
• Judge’s fifth-inning double was his 25th extra-base hit, tops in the American League.
• Tovar’s single extended his hitting streak to nine games (.389 during that span).
• The Rockies are 5-18 at home, the worst home start in franchise history.
Quotable
“We’re in every game lately, but we’ve got to cash in with runners in scoring position,” McMahon said postgame. “The energy is there—now we need the results.”
Warren credited catcher Ben Rice: “Ben called a great game. We mixed the splitter late, and it kept their lefties off balance.”
Up next
The Rockies stay home for a three-game set with the NL-central-leading Milwaukee Brewers beginning Monday at 6:40 p.m. MT. Right-hander Cal Quantrill (2-4, 4.77) faces Milwaukee ace Freddy Peralta (6-1, 2.21). Tickets start at $9 on Rockies.com, and the first 10,000 fans Tuesday receive a limited-edition Larry Walker bobblehead.
