Colorado Rockies

50-80, 27-38 Home

Chase DeLauter hits 2 triples and the Guardians beat the Rockies 7-2 to sweep their 3-game series

The win was the fourth in a row and sixth in the past eight games for the Guardians, who remain tied with the Texas Rangers for the American League’s third and final wild-card spot.

Foster Griffin (15-4) allowed two earned runs in five innings. It was his fourth start since being traded to Cleveland on Aug. 3, and his first against the Rockies.

Adell has 17 RBI in his first 17 games with the Guardians since being acquired from the Los Angeles Angels at the trade deadline. With three hits, DeLauter improved his batting average in August to .348.

Adell, Steven Kwan, Angel Martínez and Austin Hedges finished with two hits apiece for Cleveland.

The Rockies’ loss was their sixth in a row, tied for their longest skid of the season, and extended their home losing streak to nine games.

Tomoyuki Sugano (12-7) took the loss after giving up five earned runs and nine hits in just three innings. It was tied for the shortest outing in the majors for the 36-year-old right-hander, who had made it to at least the fifth inning in his previous 22 starts this season.

Up next Guardians: LHP Parker Messick (9-8, 2.54 ERA) and Cleveland will take on RHP George Klassen (2-1, 3.74) and the host Los Angeles Angels on Monday.

Rockies: RHP Ryan Feltner (5-7, 5.97) and visiting Colorado will face off against RHP Cade Cavalli (11-5, 3.22) and the Washington Nationals on Monday.
