May 13, 2025: Rare Ninth-Inning Opportunity Slips Away for Colorado Rockies
In a nail-biting game at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, the Colorado Rockies faced a formidable challenge as they trailed the Texas Rangers 4-1 in the ninth inning. Catching a rare opportunity to stage a game-winning rally, Ryan McMahon led off with a double and was followed by a single from Hunter Goodman.
However, the Rangers' third pitcher, Shawn Armstrong, proved to be a formidable adversary. He struck out Michael Toglia, Sean Bouchard, and Owen Miller consecutively, denying the Rockies a comeback and securing the Rangers' victory.
The game highlighted a solid pitching performance by the Rangers throughout the match. Earlier this series, Rangers closer Luke Jackson had suffered an incident on May 12 when hit by a 111-mph comebacker off his pitching hand during the ninth inning, resulting in significant swelling but negative X-rays. This incident, however, did not affect the May 13 game.
The Rockies continue their quest for victories, seeking to close the gap and climb up the rankings. Sign up for Breaking Rockies News email alerts to stay updated on their progress. By subscribing, you agree to our Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, and to receive emails from our website.
