DENVER — Kyle Karros hit a three-run homer to left field in the eighth inning to give the Colorado Rockies the lead in a 7-6 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Sunday.

With Carros’ homer, the Rockies have 122 runs in the eighth inning or later this season, the most in the majors.
TJ Rumfield scored three goals, including his 20th double of the season, and scored twice for Colorado. He had 94 hits, the most by a Colorado rookie before an All-Star in franchise history.
Hunter Goodman and Troy Johnston each added RBI for Colorado, which won its ninth run of the season, surpassing the entire 2025 season total.
Viktor Vodnik (3-3) earned the win on a single in the eighth inning, while Smith (0-1) took the loss. Jordan Romano made his fifth save, striking out Willie Adams with two outs and a runner on second.
