Tyler Soderstrom Sends A's Past Rockies 7-5 for 4th Straight Comeback Victory in Las Vegas
On Sunday, the Colorado Rockies set a franchise record for runs in a 23-9 victory over the Athletics at Las Vegas Ballpark, with temperatures reaching 101 degrees.
Hunter Goodman and Willi Castro each hit two home runs, leading Colorado's six-homer performance; Castro finished with seven RBIs while Goodman collected five hits.
Scheduled to move to the Las Vegas Strip in 2028, the Athletics hold a 35-36 record, while the 27-45 Rockies entered the game with the worst record in MLB.
Ending a four-game winning streak, the Athletics concluded their six-game Las Vegas homestand with a 4-2 record, as Manager Kotsay credited starting pitcher Jeffrey Springs for "battling" through challenging weather.
The Rockies travel to Wrigley Field to face the Chicago Cubs on Monday night, while the Athletics return to West Sacramento to begin a series against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
