The best start of the four Chase Burns has logged so far for the Cincinnati Reds wasn't enough to spur the team a win.

Hunter Goodman scored the tiebreaking run on a wild pitch in the eighth inning, and the visiting Colorado Rockies edged the Cincinnati Reds 3-2 in the opener of a three-game series Friday night.

The Rockies entered Friday night 21-72. Seventy-two losses, and the Reds couldn't beat them in a 3-2 loss Friday night. Colorado started German Marquez Friday night, who entered with a record of 3-10. The Reds scored just one run off him.

On its face, a three-game set in steamy July against 21-win Colorado might not seem like much of an attraction. But it should be.

Ahead of Game 2 on Saturday against the Colorado Rockies, the Cincinnati Reds made a roster move that will impact the lineup.

Germán Márquez had another strong outing and Ryan McMahon hit his 13th home run of the season as the Colorado Rockies edged the Cincinnati Reds, 3-2 in the opener of a three-game series on Friday night.

The Colorado Rockies have a chance Saturday to do something they've accomplished only twice this season -- and an opportunity to put the Cincinnati Reds on the verge of suffering a fate they haven't endured this year.
