Left-hander Austin Gomber pitched so well at Coors Field last season that the Twittersphere started referring to him as “Blake Street Gomber.”
Gomber, the centerpiece of the trade that sent Nolan Arenado to St. Louis last February, was 5-1 with a 2.09 ERA with 40 strikeouts, 14 walks and just five homers surrendered in nine starts at Coors Last season.The Cubs scored five runs off the left-hander in 4 1/3 innings in their 6-4 win. Gomber gave up eight hits, including a solo homer to Wilson Contreras in the first inning, and walked four .
Gomber said he felt like his delivery was a little bit rushed, adding that “the shape” of his breaking pitches was not what he wanted.
