Jake Cave Shines in Rockies' 9-2 Victory

Jake Cave led the Colorado Rockies to a 9-2 victory over the New York Yankees, going 4-for-5 with a home run, a double, and three RBIs, falling just a triple shy of hitting for the cycle. This marked Cave's first career four-hit game, with his performance bolstered by his history as a former Yankees farmhand. Yankees' star Aaron Judge, who leads the MLB with 49 homers, had his home run streak halted at four games, going 0-for-2 with a walk. Nolan Jones also contributed significantly, driving in three runs, as the Rockies snapped a six-game road losing streak. Rookie starter Bradley Blalock secured his first career win, allowing two runs over 5 1/3 innings. This game also saw the Yankees honor their 2009 championship team during their annual Old-Timers’ Day ceremony.
