Barmes Continues Hot Streak

by @ 2:00 pm. Filed under 2008 Rockies

Amidst a very inconsistent rocky season for the Rockies, Clint Barmes has been a light of consistency of late. Barmes helped carry the Rockies to a 4-3 win over the Giants on Monday. He smacked two hits, including his fourth homer of the season. Matt Holliday and Garrett Atkins also each had two hits.

Barmes has been on a tear, hitting .500 since May 6. In that stretch he is 22-44. He also extended his hitting streak to 12 games.

Jason Grilli picked up the win in relief, although only recording two outs. Jorge De La Rosa allowed the Giants two earned runs over 5.1 innings, on just four hits. He walked two and rung up three on strikes. The Rockies staff allowed just eight hits total.

Randy Winn and Fred Lewis led the way on offense for the Giants. Winn hit a solo homer in the first inning, one of his two hits, two run, and two RBI’s. Lewis pounded two triples in the game, bringing his total to five for the year.

Pat Misch started and took a no decision after throwing five innings. He allowed just five hits and three runs. Vinny Chulk took the loss after surrendering the Rockies final run. Yorvit Torrealba had the huge hit, lining a Chulk fastball down the left field line scoring two with two outs in the sixth to put the Rockies ahead.

Ryan Spilborghs played a part in the rally, scoring the go-ahead run, as he continues to be clutch in recent games. Brian Fuentes picked up the save, his sixth.
