Rockies Beat Diamondbacks 11‑6 in Spring Training

The Colorado Rockies defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks 11‑6 in a 5‑inning spring training game at Salt River Field. Jordan Lawlar hit a home run for the D‑backs, but Arizona's pitching staff struggled, allowing 11 runs.

The Rockies’ offense exploded early, scoring five runs in the second inning while Arizona’s pitchers faltered, with ten different arms used in the game. Despite Jordan Lawlar’s solo homer and a double by Tommy Troy, the Diamondbacks could not keep up, as Colorado’s bullpen held the lead for the final innings.

Arizona’s pitching lineup saw multiple starters and relievers charged with runs, and the team walked eight batters in the first six innings. The Rockies’ defense and timely hitting secured a decisive spring‑training win.
