The road remains a Rubik\u2019s Cube for the Rockies. They lost, 4-3, to the Marlins at loanDepot Park in Miami on Saturday. Colorado has opened the season 0-2.<\/p>\n
That, after finishing 18-63 on the road last season, the worst road record in the majors and the most road losses in a season in franchise history.\n<\/p>\n
Key moments: The Marlins won the game in the eighth when Otto Lopez singled to right, stole second, and scored on Owen Caissie\u2019s RBI single. Cassie was 3 for 4.<\/p>\n
Colorado starter Michael Lorenzen (4 1\/3 innings, three earned runs on seven hits, four strikeouts, no walks) made one crucial mistake, throwing a misplaced fastball to Liam Hicks, who clobbered it for a two-run homer in the fifth, tying the game 3-3.\n<\/p>\n
Who\u2019s hot: Colorado rookie first baseman TJ Rumfield hit a solo homer in the second off Marlins right-hander Eury Perez. It was Rumfield\u2019s first big-league home run. Shortstop Ezequiel Tovar blasted a two-run homer to left in the fourth to give the Rockies a short-lived 3-1 lead.\n<\/p>\n
Who\u2019s not: The Rockies\u2019 offense went 0 for 4 with runners in scoring position. Center fielder Brenton Doyle went 0 for 3 with a walk and has opened the season 0 for 7.\n<\/p>\n
