Reds 6, Rockies 2
At Goodyear Ballpark
On the mound: Cal Quantrill, pegged to start Friday against Arizona in Colorado’s second game of the regular season, had a rough Cactus League finale. The right-hander was dinged for four homers in 4 2/3 innings, giving up 12 hits and six runs overall. Two of the homers were wind-blown and the Reds dumped in a couple of bloop hits. Quantrill walked two and struck out two. Manager Bud Black said he wasn’t concerned about the right-hander’s off day. Quantrill finished with a 5.28 ERA At the plate: Colorado was limited to six hits, and both of its runs came on a two-run home run by Alan Trejo in the fifth inning. It was the utility infielder’s third homer of spring and boosted his chance of making the 26-man roster. … Starting shortstop Ezequiel Tovar hit a first-inning triple, and five of the Rockies’ six hits went for extra bases, including doubles by Charlie Blackmon, Benny Montgomery and Elehuris Montero.
Prospect watch: Greg Jones, acquired in a trade from Tampa Bay on Thursday, made his Rockies debut, going 0 for 3 with two strikeouts. He started in center field.
