Great start to the year for the Rockies, who pounded Kyle Loshe on their way to a 10-0 victory on opening day, then tagged Matt Garza for four runs in the middle innings Tuesday in a 5-2 win.
Colorado scored three in the fourth, including three straight doubles, then added runs in the fifth and sixth. The Rockies have won a road series (they won just three all of last season), and already have 12 doubles, which ties the modern record for two-baggers through the first two games of the season.

Goodman: "A blowout from jump street"
What is Drew Goodman talking about?: Colorado scored a lot of early runs in Monday's game.
G: "Fourth inning, Milwaukee had traffic"
What?: The Brewers had runners on base in the fourth inning.
G: "We'll check the gloves for the Rockies"
What?: These guys are playing these positions today.
G: "He's been a problem child for Jordan Lyles"
What?: Lyles has problems getting this hitter out.
G: "Had to jam on the brakes"
What?: The runner had to stop and hold at the base instead of advancing.
G: "There was the dirt ball"
What?: That pitch was in the dirt.
* Goodman also mentioned how bullpen coach Darren Holmes was a "tireless worker ", and I'm sure he is. But just as he said it a camera showed Holmes yawning:
Nicknames that aren't really nicknames
Troy Tulowitzki - "Tulo"
Carlos Gonzalez - "CarGo"
