GAME STORY: Colorado opens the season 4-1 for the ninth time in team history: by psaundersdp
It arrived in the fifth inning of Colorado’s 4-1 win over the Rangers on Tuesday night at Globe Life Field.
“You always get the question of, ‘What’s better, hitting a homer or robbing a home?’ ” Grichuk said. “I think, honestly, robbing a homer is better because someone else is connected to that — the pitcher.” Winners of four straight, the Rockies’ 4-1 record to begin the season is tied for the best start through five games in franchise history. Of course, the bandwagon brakes need to be pumped because the Rockies have opened the season with a 4-1 record eight times before, including 2020. Right-handed starter Chad Kuhl, making his Rockies debut, pitched a solid game, save for issuing four walks over his 4 1/3 innings.
“No question about that,” Kuhl said. “I’m working on getting the fastball down and trying to get those early outs, and some of the big misses.”Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chad Kuhl throws to the Texas Rangers in the fourth inning of a baseball game, Tuesday, April 12, 2022, in Arlington, Texas.
The Rockies loaded the bases in the fifth on a double by Connor Joe, an infield single by Blackmon and a walk by Bryant. C.J. Cron’s run-scoring groundout scored Joe to make it 3-1.
