DENVER (Interstat) — Ezequiel Tovar homered twice, including a walk-off two-run shot in the bottom of the ninth inning, and the Colorado Rockies rallied from a three-run deficit to defeat the San Francisco Giants 8-6 on Friday night at Coors Field.

Tovar finished 2 for 4 with four RBIs, capping a five-run ninth inning that turned a 6-3 Giants lead into a dramatic Rockies victory. Hunter Goodman added a game-tying three-run homer in the same frame, going 2 for 4 with three RBIs. The win snapped a five-game losing streak for Colorado, which improved to 21-37 while San Francisco fell to 22-35.

San Francisco took an early lead in the third inning. Bryce Eldridge led off with a double, moved to third on a flyout and scored on a sacrifice fly by Willy Adames. The Giants added two more in the fourth. Rafael Devers walked, advanced to third on a single by Jung Hoo Lee, and scored on a sacrifice fly by Daniel Susac. Lee later scored on a single by Harrison Bader, making it 3-0.

Colorado got on the board in the second inning. Ezequiel Tovar walked, moved to third on a single by Edouard Julien, and scored on a groundout by Kyle Karros. That run cut the lead to 3-1.

Giants starter Logan Webb pitched effectively through four innings, allowing one earned run on three hits while striking out five. He exited after 4 1/3 innings with a 3-1 lead, having allowed only a double and a walk after the second inning. Webb was replaced by Erik Miller, who retired the side in the sixth.

San Francisco extended its lead to 4-1 in the eighth. Jung Hoo Lee doubled, advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt, and scored on a sacrifice fly by Eldridge. The Giants then appeared to put the game away in the ninth. With one out, Luis Arraez was hit by a pitch. Devers followed with a triple to right-center that scored Arraez, and Matt Chapman singled to drive in Devers, making it 6-1.

Colorado responded immediately in the bottom of the ninth. Jake McCarthy led off with a single off Giants reliever Caleb Kilian. Tyler Freeman singled to center, putting runners at first and second. TJ Rumfield flied out to right, advancing McCarthy to third. Goodman then launched a 1-0 pitch to left field for his 13th home run of the season, tying the game at 6. The blast was upheld after a replay review.

Troy Johnston struck out for the second out, but Willi Castro kept the inning alive with a single to right field. Tovar then crushed a 2-2 pitch to left for his fourth home run of the season, scoring Castro and giving the Rockies an 8-6 walk-off victory.

Kilian took the loss, his third against one win. He allowed five runs on five hits in two-thirds of an inning. Colorado reliever Juan Mejia earned the win, his first against four losses, after pitching a scoreless top of the ninth.

Jung Hoo Lee led the Giants with a 4-for-5 performance, including a double and two runs scored. Rafael Devers went 2 for 4 with a triple, a walk, and an RBI. Matt Chapman had a single and an RBI. Casey Schmitt doubled in the fifth inning but was left stranded.

For Colorado, Goodman’s home run was his second of the series. Tovar, who had been 1 for 4 in his previous start and 0 for 2 in the game before that, delivered when it mattered most. Shortstop Edouard Julien singled, and Willi Castro doubled and scored a run. The Rockies outhit the Giants 13-12.

Relievers Seth Halvorsen, Jaden Hill, and Keegan Thompson combined to hold San Francisco scoreless over four innings before Mejia finished the game. Halvorsen pitched 1 2/3 innings, allowing one hit and striking out two. Hill struck out two in 1 1/3 innings. Thompson faced two batters in the eighth.

San Francisco’s bullpen also performed well through the middle innings. Joel Peguero tossed two-thirds of an inning with a strikeout. Miller struck out one in a scoreless sixth. Matt Gage worked two-thirds of an inning without allowing a hit.

The game’s pivotal moment occurred in the ninth. After the Giants had scored two runs to take a three-run lead, the Rockies responded with five runs on four hits. The rally began with consecutive singles, followed by Goodman’s game-tying homer. Tovar’s walk-off shot capped the comeback.

Colorado had entered the ninth trailing 6-3 after the Giants scored twice in the top half. San Francisco’s late surge was keyed by Devers’ triple and Chapman’s single, but the lead proved insufficient.

The crowd of 28,568 at Coors Field watched the Rockies win for just the second time in their last seven games. The game lasted 3 hours, 6 minutes.
