Firestorm Lose to Rockies, 9-5
Colorado picked up a win at Coors Field, toppling the Arizona Firestorm, 9-5. Pitcher Jose Garcia was one of the reasons the Rockies triumphed. Mitchell Boggs was called on to finish, recording his 1st save. The victory makes Colorado 1-1.

The game could have flipped with one out in the top of the eighth. But Jose Garcia made what his manager later called "an A-plus pitch." With the bases loaded and Arizona trailing 9-2, Garcia threw a curveball to Aaron Hill and Hill struck out.
