Trailing 7–2 in the fifth inning, the Rockies rallied behind a late-game surge that culminated in a two-out, two-run single by COL SS Orlando Arcia in the bottom of the ninth. The Giants, who had controlled much of the game thanks to SF LF Dominic Smith’s three-run homer—his first as a Giant—and a solid outing from starter SF SP Hayden Birdsong, saw their bullpen unravel late. Key defensive miscues, including an error by Casey Schmitt and a costly misplay by SF 1B Heliot Ramos, helped fuel San Francisco’s momentum. However, it wasn’t enough to halt the Rockies’ comeback. COL OF Mickey Moniak and COL 2B Thairo Estrada, former Giant, had standout games offensively for the Rockies, each recording multiple hits. The win snapped Colorado’s five-game losing streak and improved their record to 13–55, marking the worst 67-game start in the majors since 1932. Meanwhile, the loss ended the Giants’ streak of one-run decisions and dropped them to 40–29, just behind the idle Dodgers in the NL West standings. Colorado is now 13-55 and sits in 5th place in the NL West. San Francisco is now 40-29 and sits in 2nd place in the NL West. Rangers Pour it On: Beat Twins On Thursday, the Texas Rangers delivered an offensive masterclass, demolishing the Minnesota Twins 16–3 in Minneapolis. The Rangers matched their season-high run total, fueled by a relentless power surge that included six home runs. The Rangers OF trio Wyatt Langford, Adolis Garcia, and Sam Haggerty each amazingly launched three-run shots, while INF Josh Smith, 3B Jake Burger, and OF Evan Carter added solo blasts. 6 total home runs is the Texas jumped on Minnesota starter Bailey Ober early, tagging him for four homers before he was pulled in the fifth inning. TEX Patrick Corbin secured his first win since mid-May, pitching 5⅓ innings and allowing just three runs. The win capped a tough nine-game road trip for Texas with a 4–5 record, giving them a momentum-shifting victory to open the series. Meanwhile, the Twins were left reeling, unable to keep pace with the Rangers’ relentless offensive barrage. Texas is now 33-34 and sits in 3rd place in the AL West. Minnesota is now 36-32 and sits in 2nd place in the AL Central.  Mets Welcome HRC Team; Get Started Hot The Mets welcomed the HRC Crew to Citi Field today, and they must have gotten the memo that we need home runs, as the New York Mets jumped out to an early lead in the first inning when NYM 2B Jeff McNeil crushed a three-run homer to right field, scoring SS Francisco Lindor and OF Juan Soto. That blast gave the Mets a quick 3–0 advantage. They extended their lead in the...Morehttps://www.pcf.org/homerunchallenge/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/hrc_social-share_2024sg_01.jpg1200630
