DENVER—Brendan Rodgers hit a go-ahead grand slam in a five-run fourth inning, and the Colorado Rockies beat the San Diego Padres 7–4 on Tuesday night for just their second win in 10 games.
Colorado trailed 4–1 before Rodgers’ first career slam, a drive into the left-field bleachers on an up-and-in fastball from Michael King with an 0–2 count. Rodgers had not homered since Sept. 29—he hit all four of his homers last year in a 10-day span.
