Rockies’ comeback negated by Posey’s 2nd HR
- Updated: May 28, 2016
DENVER — Buster Posey’s second three-run homer of the game keyed a six-run eighth inning as the Giants won for the 14th time in the last 16 games, 10-5, over the Rockies at Coors Field on Saturday afternoon.
Posey, who homered in the first inning off Rockies starter Eddie Butler, flipped the game to the Giants in the eighth with his seventh homer of the season — off Carlos Estevez, after Joe Panik and Matt Duffy had singled. Jarrett Parker added an RBI single and Gregor Blanco singled in two runs as the Rockies needed three pitchers to complete the inning.
The rally came after the Rockies had taken a 5-4 lead in the seventh on Nolan Arenado’s two-run double, followed by Carlos Gonzalez’s seventh homer of the season. The Rockies had endured six strong innings from Giants starter Madison Bumgarner (one run, five hits, six strikeouts) before making their run.
