The Colorado Rockies got a good outing from a starting pitcher, but even that wasn’t enough to snap their now five-game losing streak as they fell to the San Diego Padres 3-1 last night in San Diego. Making his debut with the Rockies in 2012, pitcher Alex White pitched six and a third innings, allowing just two runs on six hits while striking out five, but the Rockies failed to back him offensively despite nine hits. Todd Helton’s RBI single in the first inning produced the lone Rockies run. The Rockies will try and salvage a game in this three-game series this afternoon. Left-hander Christian Friedrich, the Rockies first round pick in 2008, will make his major league debut on the mound. ESPN Radio 1410 has the call of the game with the pregame show starting at 2:05 and first pitch at 2:35.
