All-Star Hunter Goodman Becomes 1st Rockies Player with a Pair of 3-Homer Games in the Same Season
Goodman drove in five runs and became the first Rockies player with two three-homer games in one season.
On Sunday, July 19, 2026, the Cincinnati Reds defeated the Colorado Rockies 9-6 at Coors Field, with catcher Tyler Stephenson hitting two home runs in the victory.
While the Reds surged to an 8-1 lead behind home runs from Nathaniel Lowe and Sal Stewart, Rockies catcher Hunter Goodman countered with three towering blasts to keep Colorado competitive.
Hunter Greene earned the win with seven strikeouts over six innings despite allowing two of Goodman's three home runs, making Goodman the first Rockies player with two three-homer games in one season.
Rockies hitter Willi Castro launched a 435-foot solo blast in the ninth inning, but reliever Emilio Pagan closed the game, lifting the Reds to 45-53 and dropping the Rockies to 40-61.
The Reds travel to Seattle for a three-game series beginning Monday, while the Rockies host the Washington Nationals for a three-game set starting the same day.
