Behind Germán Márquez’s solid start and some timely hitting, the Rockies cruised to one of their most complete victories away from Coors this season, besting the Philadelphia Phillies 11-2 on Friday.
Márquez turns a corner
Germán Márquez has struggled in his last few starts and has not been his front-of-the-rotation self in the last few weeks. You’d never know that after watching this start, though, as the Venezuelan righty kept the Phillies in check from the off. While still not quite as sharp with his fastball as he’d like, Márquez utilized his off-speed pitches to perfection, in particular his slider and curveball.
