When you play at Coors Field, you know there is going to be alot of home runs hit; because of the altitude in the City of Denver, but the one thing you do not expect is a low scoring game.

Nolan Arenado hit a solo home run off of Madison Bumgarner leading off the bottom of the fifth inning, as the Colorado Rockies held on to defeat the San Francisco Giants 2-1 at Coors Field.

Arenado’s home run broke a 1-1 tie that lasted all of one-half inning, as Hunter Pence hit his second home run of the season in the top of the inning that tied up the game between these National Western Division rivals.

Troy Tulowitzki put the Rockies on the board in the bottom of the fourth inning ,as he hit his third home run of the season off of Madison Bumgarner.

Through the first two games of the series, both won by the Rockies, they have hit a whopping seven home runs off of Giants pitching.

Franklin Morales allowed just one run on seven hits in seven innings, as he matched the longest outing of his career.

On the other side of things, it was a tough loss for Bumgarner, who threw a complete game, allowing two runs on nine hits, walking just one and striking out six; however he lost for the second straight outing.

LaTroy Hawkins came on in the top of the ninth inning to pickup the save for the Rockies, despite the fact that he allowed a pinch-hit walk to Brandon Crawford and then a pinch-hit single to Gregor Blanco; however the eteran was able to regroup to strikeout pinch hitter Hector Sanchez and got Angel Pagan to ground out to Tulowitzki at shortstop to end the game.
