The Giants’ seventh loss in their past nine games snapped a streak of 11 straight wins over the last-place Rockies.
SAN FRANCISCO — The twin pairing of Tyler and Taylor Rogers in the Giants bullpen has been more than a feel-good story. They have been so effective for the past two months that when it has come to bridging the gap to Camilo Doval in late-inning, high-leverage situations, they have begun to enter one after the other as Gabe Kapler’s options 1a and 1b.
The twins who had been so good of late imploded in their own ways, sending the Giants to a 5-2 loss to the last-place Rockies, who hadn’t won a road game since June 13 and hadn’t beaten the Giants since last season. The Rockies’ win snapped a 10-game road losing streak and an 11-game losing streak to San Francisco.
Taylor issued a pair of walks — his first outing with multiple free passes since throwing his glove in the trash April 12 — and practically by the time Tyler’s warm-up music was over, they were rounding the bases and the Giants were in a three-run hole. The Giants lost for the seventh time in their past nine games, falling to 5-9 since the end of their 10-game win streak.
