Chase Anderson knew he needed to rebound and knew he needed to finally give the Rockies a chance to win.
The veteran right-hander delivered in Colorado’s 8-7, 11-inning win over the Yankees on Sunday afternoon at Coors Field. The 35-year-old pitched five scoreless innings, allowing three hits, walking two and striking out one.
Anderson ran into big-time trouble in the third when Oswaldo Cabrera and Jose Trevino rapped out one-out singles and Anderson walked Giancarlo Stanton to load the bases. But when Anderson got Anthony Rizzo to fly out to right fielder Kris Bryant to escape the jam, Anderson pumped his fist as he left the mound.
Anderson’s start was a 180-degree turn from his previous four outings, in which he lost each game, allowed 27 earned runs, gave up eight homers, and posted an 18.23 ERA. The 27 runs were tied for the second-most earned runs allowed over four starts in franchise history. “Today, there were a couple of critical at-bats that could have gone the other way, but they didn’t.”First baseman Michael Toglia, called up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday, hit a one-out, solo homer off Yankees ace Gerrit Coles in the second inning. It was not only Togila’s first home run of the season, but it was also his first since Sept. 7, a string of 105 at-bats that was the longest drought of his budding career.
