CINCINNATI (AP) — Colorado right-hander Germán Márquez struck out a season-high eight and Hunter Goodman scored on a two-out wild pitch in the eighth inning to lift the Rockies to a 3-2 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night.

Ryan McMahon hit a two-run homer in the fourth to give the Rockies a 2-1 lead, and Marquez made it stand until he exited after allowing four hits in six innings.

But Rockies reliever Jake Bird (3-1) surrendered a single to Will Benson and double to Noelvi Marte leading off the seventh, and T.J. Friedl tied it with an RBI groundout.

Reds reliever Tony Santillan (1-3) loaded the bases in the top of the eighth and was one strike away from getting out of the jam before throwing the wild pitch to score Goodman.

Cincinnati rookie right-hander Chase Burns had the best, and longest, outing of his young career, striking out a career high 10 in six innings.

Noelvi Marte gave the Reds an early 1-0 lead in the third with his fifth home run of the season as part of a 3-for-4 game that included two doubles, but Cincinnati left runners on base in eight of the nine innings.

Victor Vodnik worked around Marte's ninth-inning double and Elly De La Cruz's third intentional walk of the game to record his second save.

Key Moment

Bird intentionally waked Elly De La Cruz with a runner on third and two outs in the seventh before striking out Austin Hays to keep the game tied.

Key Stat

With their 22nd win of the season, the Rockies avoided tying the MLB record for fewest wins before the All-Star break, which is 21 and shared by the 1945 Phillies and 1952 Pirates.

Up Next

Colorado RHP Bradley Blalock (0-2, 12.94 ERA) will oppose Cincinnati RHP Brady Singer (7-7, 4.32) in the second game of the series on Saturday.
