ICYMI: Rockies finally beat Cardinals, snap 12-game losing streak in St. Louis
Riding a bounce-back start from right-hander Chris Flexen, and beating up Adam Wainwright early and often, the Rockies beat the Cardinals, 9-4, at Busch Stadium. It was Colorado’s first win in St. Louis since July 31, 2018, snapping a string of 12 consecutive losses at Busch.
Friday night, he was just a shadow of the pitcher who had dominated the Rockies for so long. Colorado battered the 41-year-old right-hander for seven runs on nine hits in three innings, leaving him with a 7.81 ERA. Colorado got production throughout the order — all nine position players got a hit — and rookie outfielder Nolan Jones had an especially good night. He hit 4 for 5 and boosted his average to .284.
Jones had three RBIs, driving in a run with a double off Wainwright in the first and a single in the second. He collected his third RBI with a single in the fourth off lefty Andrew Suarez.
