Closer Seth Halvorsen handled the ninth, facing three batters and retiring them in order. And with that, the Rockies have won three straight games. Say what you want about the 2025 Colorado Rockies, but they have heart. The Orioles are now 45-56 while the Rockies move to 27-76.

Ezequiel Tovar hit a tiebreaking solo homer in the top of the eighth inning, and the Colorado Rockies beat the Baltimore Orioles 6-5 on Friday night to improve to 5-2 since the All-Star break.

Starting for the Rockies is Kyle Freeland. This will be his 19th start of the season, his tenth on the road. He is the second pitcher in franchise history to have nine seasons with more than 10 starts, joining Aaron Cook (2003-2011).

The Orioles clobbered four home runs in the first two innings but couldn’t hold on in a rain-soaked loss to the Rockies on Friday.
