Tough Outing in Colorado 
Hey D-backs fans, sometimes games just don't go our way! Last night we faced off against the Rockies in Colorado, and unfortunately, we came up short with a final score of 2-8.Early Struggles
To kick things off, our top of the first inning was a rough one. Corbin Carroll got hit by a pitch, but we couldn't capitalize on it. Geraldo Perdomo, Joc Pederson, and Christian Walker all flied out or struck out. The Rockies didn't fare much better in their half of the inning, so we were back at it in no time.Rockies Strike First
In the bottom of the 2nd inning, the Rockies managed to break the deadlock. Michael Toglia doubled, followed by an RBI double from Jacob Stallings. Hunter Goodman struck out, but Jordan Beck doubled in another run. The Rockies led 2-0.Trying to Fight Back 
Pavin Smith had a strong showing, doubling twice, and Eugenio Suárez's RBI groundout in the 4th inning got us on the board. Luis Guillorme managed to walk and advance to second on a wild pitch, but Jose Herrera's groundout ended another potential rally.Rockies Keep Rolling
The bottom of the 3rd inning saw Ezequiel Tovar homer to make it 3-0. Our pitchers struggled to keep runners off the base paths, and by the end of the 6th inning, the Rockies were up 5-1.Solo Homers for Hope 
Christian Walker gave us something to cheer about with a solo homer in the 8th inning, but by then, it felt more like a consolation as we still trailed 6-2.More Late-Inning Woes
In the bottom of the 8th inning, the Rockies extended their lead even further thanks to some fielding errors and key hits by Ryan McMahon and Brendan Rodgers, making the final score 8-2.Bright Spots Despite the Loss 
Although it was a tough night, don't forget about the positives: Pavin Smith had two doubles, Eugenio Suárez drove in a run, and Christian Walker hit a homer.Let's hold our heads up high and get ready for the next game. Go D-backs!
