Carrigg was the central figure, homering twice and driving the offense throughout the night. Troy Johnston also supplied key support with doubles that helped keep Colorado's attack moving.

The turning point came in the sixth. Troy Johnston scored on Brett Sullivan's single, giving Colorado the lead after Johnston had scored the tying run on his own double earlier in the inning. Carrigg then homered with Sullivan and Jake McCarthy scoring, extending the Rockies' advantage. Colorado added further insurance when Johnston doubled Kyle Karros home and Zac Veen singled to bring Ezequiel Tovar across.

San Diego's offense struck early through home runs by Fernando Tatis Jr., Luis Campusano and Austin Hays, but it could not answer Colorado's middle-inning surge. Wandy Peralta absorbed the loss after the Rockies broke open the game in the sixth.

Colorado's late rally extended its winning streak, while San Diego's defeat extended its losing streak. The game belonged to the Rockies once the sixth-inning burst arrived.
