Rockies' Tanner Gordon: Strikes out five in loss
Gordon (0-3) was the pitcher of record Saturday in the Rockies' 5-0 loss to the Giants in the second game of a doubleheader. He struck out five and allowing four earned runs on nine hits and no walks over six innings.
Gordon got off on the wrong foot, allowing back-to-back hits in both of the first two innings, leading to two early runs coming across for San Francisco. The right-hander would then cruise through the next two frames before once again surrendering back-to-back hits to open the fifth. The right-hander has now taken losses in all three of his starts this season, allowing at least four runs in each outing. On a positive note, he's managed to go six innings in two of those starts and currently holds a 12:2 K:BB on the campaign. Gordon was serving as the Rockies' 27th man for the doubleheader, so he'll likely be optioned back to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.
