Connor Joe’s heroics salvaged a terrific start by right-hander German Marquez, who allowed one run over seven innings.
Joe, who became a fan favorite last season, blasted a two-out, 444-foot solo homer off Blake Treinen in the eighth inning to lift the Rockies to a 3-2 win over the Dodgers.
Last year, fans at Coors began a chant of “Joe! Joe!” If he felt the love then, he’s really feeling it now. Daniel Bard closed out the game by striking out Justin Turner, Edwin Rios and Cody Bellinger in a perfect ninth. The Dodgers loaded the bases against Colome, forcing Bud Black to turn to Carlos Estevez for the third out. Estevez got Max Muncy to pop up to Hilliard.
