The Colorado Rockies’ chance to sweep the Boston Red Sox fell apart instantly on Wednesday night.
The Rockies held a slim 2-1 lead when the Red Sox scored five runs in the seventh inning of a 6-3 loss after a two-hour rain delay at Fenway Park.
The fireworks began when Rockies starter Austin Gomber allowed back-to-back singles, leading to a pitching change. With reliever Brent Suter on the mound, Boston tallied three runs off shortstop Pablo Reyes’ sacrifice fly and left fielder Rob Refsnyder’s two-run triple.
