Gut punch. Root canal. Stubbing your toe in the middle of the night. Painful. Just like the Rockies’ 2-1 loss to the Dodgers on Wednesday night.
“We just tried to pitch up and down because they have been so aggressive hitting the fastball,” Ureña said. “The main thing was to try to get the ball on the ground.”“Early on, the ball-to-strikes ratio wasn’t great but he ended up throwing strikes when he needed to,” Black said. “There’s a composure to him, and from what I have been told, this guy’s a fighter. He competes hard — with good stuff. You saw that tonight.
Black brought in right-hander Jake Bird, who made his major league debut on June 16. Bird promptly plunked Barnes to load the bases and then uncorked a wild pitch that allowed Bellinger to race home from third. Bird cut the Dodgers rally off by inducing Betts to ground out to third baseman Ryan McMahon.
Ureña considers himself a starter, which is why his solid performance Wednesday night meant so much to him.
