Hunter Goodman hits three home runs and drives in five runs as the Colorado Rockies defeat the Minnesota Twins 8-5 on Saturday. Goodman delivers a solo homer in the first inning and another solo shot in the third against Twins starter Mike Paredes. After a groundout in the fifth, Goodman returns in the seventh with the Rockies holding a 3-2 lead, hitting a three-run home run to extend Colorado to 6-2. The Rockies continue to score to reach eight runs total and secure the win. Yahoo Sports reports that Goodman also went deep earlier in the series, homering in his final at-bat on Friday. Other coverage characterizes the performance as a homer hat trick, with one outlet noting Goodman produces much of Colorado’s power in the win. Paredes is described as throwing 5.1 innings, including a career-best stint, before giving way to the bullpen, where Kody Funderburk records an out after serving up Goodman’s seventh-inning drive. Overall, Goodman’s three homers are the key factor in Colorado’s scoring surge and final margin.
