Bernabel's walk-off single helps Rockies beat Dodgers 4-3, and end 10-game losing streak to Los Angeles
Warming Bernabel lined a game-winning single in the ninth inning as the Colorado Rockies snapped a 10-game skid against the Dodgers by rallying to beat Los Angeles 4-3 on Monday night. Ezequiel Tovar started a one-out rally with a bloop double that a charging Teoscar Hernández couldn't corral. Bernabel followed by sending a cutter from Justin Wrobleski (4-5) up the middle to bring home Tovar. Tovar tied the game in the seventh with a solo homer. The Rockies extended their win streak to four games. At 36-89, Colorado needs to win six of its final 37 games to steer clear of the 2024 Chicago White Sox's modern record of 121 losses. Victor Vodnik (4-3) pitched a perfect ninth, including a strikeout of Dalton Rushing with Shohei Ohtani on deck. Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto surrendered leads on two occasions in a no-decision where he allowed three runs over seven innings and struck out six. In the third, Ryan Ritter tied the game on a two-run single. Tovar later came through by lining a fastball from Yamamoto over the fence in right-center. Ohtani had two hits, including a single in the second that had an exit velocity of 106.5 mph and nearly hit Kyle Freeland in the head. Freeland left in the top of the fifth due to a blister on his left middle finger. He allowed two runs while striking out five. Rockies catcher Hunter Goodman nearly hit a homer in the sixth to left but it hooked foul. The Dodgers are 6-1 against Colorado and need one more victory to secure a season series win over the Rockies for an eighth consecutive year. Rockies lefty Austin Gomber (0-6, 6.75 ERA) makes his 12th start Tuesday. The Dodgers will throw righty Emmet Sheehan (3-2, 3.86).

Rockies shut out Cardinals to snap eight-game skid
August 13 - Kyle Freeland and Victor Vodnik combined on a six-hitter as the visiting Colorado Rockies blanked the St. Louis Cardinals 3-0 on Tuesday to snap an eight-game losing streak. Freeland (3-12) allowed just five hits over 7 1/3 innings. He struck out two, walked two and coaxed three double-play grounders. Vodnik got the last five outs to earn his third save. Colorado registered just its second shutout of the season -- and both came against the Cardinals. Hunter Goodman hit a two-run homer in the fourth inning to provide all the offense the Rockies needed. Cardinals starter Matthew Liberatore (6-10) allowed three runs on four hits and one walk in four-plus innings. He struck out three batters, all in the first inning. St. Louis first baseman Willson Contreras left the game after five innings with a right foot contusion, which he sustained when he was hit by a pitch. The Cardinals had won four of their previous five games. Rain delayed the start of the for game for 41 minutes. Brendan Donovan and Ivan Herrera hit singles to start the bottom of the first inning, but Freeland defused the situation by inducing a double-play grounder from Contreras. Liberatore retired the first nine batters he faced. Tyler Freeman hit a leadoff single in the fourth inning but was thrown out trying to steal second base. That cost Colorado a run, as Ezequiel Tovar followed with a single before Goodman hit his 23rd homer of the year to put the Rockies up 2-0. Colorado increased the lead to 3-0 in the fifth inning. Brenton Doyle walked and went to third on Kyle Karros' single that ended Liberatore's night. Kyle Farmer hit a one-out RBI single off Matt Svanson. Victor Scott II and Donovan singled to start the St. Louis sixth inning, but Herrera grounded into a double play as the rally fizzled. The Cardinals' Thomas Saggese hit a one-out single in the eighth inning before Scott walked. Vodnik replaced Freeland and struck out Donovan and Herrera to end the threat. Nolan Gorman led off the bottom of the ninth with a double, but Vodnik retired the next three batters to close out the game. The teams will play the decisive game of the three-game series on Wednesday afternoon. --Field Level Media
