Grichuk’s go-ahead RBI single in the ninth rallies Rockies past Marlins 4-3

Published Wed, 25 Dec 2024 20:55:26 GMT

MIAMI (AP) — After Colorado mounted a late comeback win against the Miami Marlins on Saturday, right-hander Justin Lawrence credited the success of the bullpen for helping the Rockies win five of seven games since the All-Star break.Lawrence worked a scoreless ninth inning for his seventh save and was part of a bullpen effort that helped the Rockies rally from an early three-run deficit to beat the Marlins 4-3, handing Miami its season-high eighth straight loss.“Young guys to old guys, we’re all going out there in whatever role we’re given, and we’re running with it,” Lawrence said. “It’s just confidence we all have in each other in that bullpen.”Randal Grichuk delivered a go-ahead RBI single in the ninth that sealed the win and clinched the series. Grichuk’s first hit of the game scored Ryan McMahon. He led off the inning with a single off reliever Tanner Scott (4-3) and went to second when pinch-hitter Elias Díaz was hit by a pitch.The Marlins squandered a three-run lead built aga...

The march was fuelled by what community leaders say is an uptick in crime on their streets, making it an unsafe environment for residents and business owners.“Last year I was assaulted on this very spot, by someone coming on these steps, I almost got my arm broken, fortunately, I didn’t. My heart broke,” said Phil Parsons, a community leader who says much of the blame for the situation lies with elected officials.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden will establish a national monument honoring Emmett Till, the Black teenager from Chicago who was abducted, tortured and killed in 1955 after he was accused of whistling at a white woman in Mississippi, and his mother, a White House official said Saturday. Biden will sign a proclamation on Tuesday to create the Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley National Monument across three sites in Illinois and Mississippi, according to the official.
