GAME STORY: Rockies, worst team in National League, lose to A’s, worst team in the AL
The Oakland Athletics took Game 1 of the anti-World Series Friday night at Coors Field.
Oakland, however, bought some breathing room in the ninth on Ramon Laureano’s leadoff homer off Matt Koch. Rockies left-hander Kyle Freeland, making his first start since dislocating his right shoulder on July 9, was not sharp, giving up nine hits in four innings. He departed with the Rockies trailing 5-0, though he was charged with only three earned runs. Freeland also made a wild throw toward home but it was not scored an error.
Oakland struck quickly vs. Freeland. Brent Rooker, Jordan Diaz and Laureano rapped out consecutive singles off Freeland for a run in the first, although their hits were of the seeing-eye variety. But Shea Langeliers scalded an RBI triple off the right-field wall in the second and crushed a two-out double to center in the third, scoring easily on Nick Allen’s triple to left-center.
