The Colorado Rockies suffered a heartbreaking 4-3 loss to the Kansas City Royals in 11 innings, extending their road losing streak to 11 games. Despite a ninth-inning rally led by Jacob Stallings’ three-run double, the Rockies couldn’t hold on to the lead. Pitcher Ryan Feltner had a strong outing, allowing just one run over seven innings, but a mistake to Drew Waters resulted in a crucial home run. The Rockies struggled with runners in scoring position, hitting just .195 in those situations. Ultimately, the Royals capitalized on their opportunities, with Freddy Fermin delivering the game-winning hit in the 11th inning.
Manager Bud Black praised his team’s effort but lamented their inability to come through in clutch moments. The loss highlighted the Rockies’ offensive struggles and inability to capitalize on scoring chances. Despite the disappointing outcome, Black commended Feltner’s performance and acknowledged the solid pitching by the Royals’ Kris Bubic.
