Somebody forgot to tell Nolan Jones that the Rockies can’t hit away from Coors Field.
Entering Saturday’s game against the Cubs at Wrigley Field, the rookie outfielder was slashing .285/.368/.536 with nine home runs on the road. Those numbers are on par with his home numbers: .284/.383/.503, eight home runs.
And while I’m certain that Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll will be named the National League rookie of the year, Jones makes a strong case. As my colleague,Jones ranks second in the majors in average with runners in scoring position, hitting .420. That’s impressive. Entering Saturday’s penultimate away game of the season, the Rockies’ road record was 22-57, meaning they’re guaranteed to finish with the second-worst mark in franchise history. Only the 2014 team was worse.he was looking for smart, competitive at-bats, regardless of the locale.
“Hopefully, with the right type of preparation, we can solve some of our problems on the road. We’ll work to find a plan for every hitter and then we have to figure out how they can be successful, no matter what the situation is.”
