Summary
Sterlin Thompson just made Rockies history — hitting his first two career home runs in one game, becoming only the sixth player in franchise history to do so. Despite the winless night (Rockies fell 8-6 to Chicago), his blast brought hope to a struggling team with a 28-47 record. Thompson’s season stats now sit at .242 with 2 HRs and 9 RBI. Meanwhile, catcher Hunter Goodman is heating up with 21 HRs, 39 RBI, and a .251 average — and he’s among the rarest catchers ever to combine power with speed. Manager Warren Schaeffer praised the team’s grit, and with a homestand against Pittsburgh and Boston looming, fans are starting to believe this young core could be the spark the Rockies need.
