Vin Mazzaro was Off on the Right Foot
With Bob Green’s words, Vin Mazzaro’s career begun, as Geren called to the bench announcing “The future, is now.” With the young pitcher off on the right foot in his MLB debut win against the Chicago White Sox after two innings of loosening the butterflies and settling into the rotation. He had thrown 105 pitches, 60 of which were strikes and only walking four batters.
However his second debut was not so picturesque. Despite striking out 8 batters rookie pitcher Vin Mazzaro continued Oakland Athletics’ five game losing streak and Rockies first sweep of the A’s.
We’re swinging it pretty well, the ball’s just not dropping,” Mazzaro said after Oakland out-hit Colorado 11-9 at the Coliseum. “We’ve just got to go out and keep hacking.”
Morales Steps up for the Rockies
Rockies left-hander Franklin Morales proved himself again Wednesday afternoon holding the Diamondbacks to one run and four hits over six innings. Dexter Fowler, Yorvit Torrealba and Ian Stewart burned in home runs and the Rockies won, 9-2, at Chase Field with a crowd of 18,227.
The Rockies meet the Phillies on Friday in their home opener and won the season opening three game set. They did not bet the Diamondbacks in any series last season.
Many fans see the Colorado Rockies finishing third and with kind of start for Morales it should mean more starts for him since he struck out six and gave up his only run on Stephen Drew’s first-inning home run.
