Moniak’s Five RBIs Power Rockies’ 10-4 Comeback Over Pirates

Colorado flipped a three-run deficit with a six-run fifth to halt a brief slump.

Overview

  • The game turned after Mitch Keller was perfect through four Wednesday, then Colorado opened the fifth with five straight hits started by TJ Rumfield’s single.
  • Mickey Moniak capped the rally with a three-run homer and later added a double and a two-run triple, finishing a single shy of the cycle on his 28th birthday.
  • Jake McCarthy recorded an unassisted double play in left field, which Elias identified as the first such play in Rockies history.
  • An obstruction call on pitcher José Quintana during a rundown awarded Pittsburgh a second-inning run before Colorado seized control.
  • Antonio Senzatela delivered three innings of relief and allowed only a solo homer, his first of the season, as the bullpen finished the win.
