Tovar’s Homer in 8th Inning Propels Rockies Past Orioles 6-5 for Colorado’s 5th Win in 7 Games
BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, JUL 25 – The Rockies rallied from a 4-0 deficit with multiple homers, including Tovar's go-ahead blast, marking their fifth win in seven games, according to the Associated Press.
- On July 25, 2025, the Colorado Rockies secured a 6-5 victory over the Baltimore Orioles in Baltimore, thanks to a go-ahead solo home run by Ezequiel Tovar in the eighth inning.
- The Rockies rallied from a 4-0 deficit as both teams, last in their divisions, had traded key players like infielder Ryan McMahon and reliever Gregory Soto to New York before the game.
- Baltimore started the game with solo home runs from four different players in the first two innings, while Colorado gradually responded with long balls from Mickey Moniak and Thairo Estrada, along with key RBIs by Hunter Goodman.
- Tovar hit his drive off Andrew Kittredge after Jackson Holliday tied the game with an RBI single off Rockies reliever Jake Bird , and Seth Halvorsen closed the game with a perfect ninth inning save, his 10th in 13 chances.
- The Rockies have won five of their last seven games following the All-Star break and hold a 27-76 record for the season, needing 15 additional victories to steer clear of tying last year’s modern loss record. Meanwhile, Baltimore has yet to secure a walk-off win in 2025.
