Hunter Goodman tripled and doubled and the Colorado Rockies beat the Marlins 3-2 on Wednesday in Miami to complete a sweep in their first series win of the season.

Rockies starter Kyle Freeland allowed two unearned runs over 6 1/3 innings. Freeland (1-8) scattered four hits and struck out four for his first victory since a 4-1 win against the Milwaukee Brewers on Sept. 8, 2024.

Colorado, which began the series with a major league-worst 9-50 record, won its third straight for the first time this season. It was the Rockies’ first three-game sweep since they beat the San Diego Padres in May 2024.

Jake Bird got the last two outs in the seventh, Victor Vodnik pitched the eighth and Tyler Kinley closed for his second save.

The Rockies struck quickly against Marlins starter Cal Quantrill (3-6) on Goodman’s RBI triple in the first.

Consecutive doubles from Tyler Freeman and Jordan Beck in the fifth made it 2-0.

Goodman hit a leadoff double against reliever Janson Junk in the sixth, advanced on a flyout and scored on Brenton Doyle’s sacrifice fly.

Goodman went 7 for 13, with three homers and five RBI in the series.

DODGER BLUES

Tyler Glasnow wants you to know that reports of his demise are greatly exaggerated.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said on Monday that Glasnow’s throwing progression had been “paused” after the right-hander experienced “some discomfort” following a bullpen session on May 23.

Glasnow has been on the injured list with shoulder inflammation and clarified that he simply felt some tightness in his back following his first time throwing off a mound since April.

“I feel totally fine. Totally normal,” he said at his locker on Tuesday. “My shoulder is totally fine. That issue, I haven’t felt since I started throwing. It was fine. It really was just, I think, a precaution. I felt totally fine, I’m good to go.”

Glasnow, 31, said he resumed throwing after a couple of days and expects to throw another bullpen session later this week.

“If this was the season, no one would know about it,” said Glasnow, emphasizing that this back tightness was “nothing like” the back issue that landed him on the IL at midseason last year.

“I think it’s just precaution. We’re thinking about the playoffs. It is what it is. … I just kinda have to play the long-term card, and I’m just gonna have to take it slow.”

Shohei Ohtani was named the National League Player of the Month for May. Ohtani hit .309 in May with 15 home runs, 27 RBIs and an 1.180 OPS.

GREAT ESCAPES

The top two teams in the NL West both found a way to turn apparent losses into wins late Tuesday night.

At Dodger Stadium, Max Muncy homered twice, including a tying shot in the ninth inning, and Freddie Freeman doubled home the winning run in the 10th to lift the Dodgers over the New York Mets 6-5.

Freeman’s slicing fly to deep left field was misplayed by Brandon Nimmo, who got twisted around and appeared to lose sight of the ball as it dropped on the warning track beside him.

That allowed automatic runner Tommy Edman to score from second base with one out.

The Dodgers earned their 20th comeback win of the season after blowing a 4-1 lead they established in the first. They also tied the series opener in the ninth on Monday, but lost 4-3 in 10 innings when reliever Tanner Scott got knocked around.

This time, Scott (1-2) retired the side in the 10th, striking out Juan Soto and Pete Alonso before Nimmo grounded out.

In San Francisco, Manny Machado had four hits, including a two-run single that tied the score with two outs in the ninth inning, and Jake Cronenworth drove in the go-ahead run in the 10th as the San Diego Padres rallied past the San Francisco Giants 3-2.

One day after winning the series opener 1-0 in 10 innings, the Padres needed extras again.

Giants closer Camilo Doval walked Fernando Tatis Jr. and Luis Arraez with two outs in the ninth to load the bases for Machado, who finished 4 for 4. Doval had not allowed a run in 20 2/3 innings. It was the longest active streak in the majors.

Spencer Bivens (1-2) retired the first two batters in the 10th before Cronenworth hit a grounder past diving first baseman Casey Schmitt to score automatic runner Jackson Merrill from third.

Yuki Matsui (1-1) pitched a perfect ninth and Jeremiah Estrada got three quick outs for his second save. With a runner at third base after a sacrifice bunt, Estrada retired Heliot Ramos and Jung Hoo Lee on grounders to shortstop end it.
