US EditionRookie Crim Homers for His 1st MLB Hit as the Rockies Beat the Padres 4-2
Rookie Blaine Crim hit a 439-foot, three-run homer for his first major league hit, helping the Rockies secure a 4-2 win over the Padres in a rare offensive outburst.
- The Colorado Rockies secured a 4-2 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday evening at Petco Park, highlighted by rookie Blaine Crim’s first major league hit, a three-run homer.
- Crim rejoined the major league roster on Friday after spending time with Triple-A Albuquerque following his waiver claim from Texas on August 3; he originally debuted in the MLB with Texas on May 2.
- With two outs, Crim launched his first major league hit, a three-run homer that traveled roughly 439 feet off starter JP Sears' first pitch, which was immediately followed by Kyle Farmer’s 408-foot solo shot on the very next delivery.
- Tanner Gordon pitched over six innings, giving up just two hits while striking out nine and walking one, including a stretch where he retired 16 batters consecutively. Victor Vodnik secured his eighth save by fanning Ryan O'Hearn with runners positioned at first and third.
- The victory marked the Rockies' first time scoring during their five visits to San Diego this season and slightly improved their major league worst 41-107 record, while the Padres remained in contention for the postseason amid ongoing talks about resting Manny Machado.

Two Rockies homers enough to sink JP Sears, Padres
Dylan Cease has taken the ball every fifth or sixth day for the last five years. Yu Darvish hasn’t quite been himself since returning from his elbow injury. Michael King is just one start into his return from knee inflammation. So it made sense to insert JP Sears on Friday to give the rotation one last break before the Padres’ final postseason push.
