Roc Riggio Hits First HR in Triple-A | Colorado Rockies News

Roc Riggio just blasted his first Triple-A home run, giving the Rockies a one-run lead in the second inning — and it might be the spark that lights up his offensive potential. The 24-year-old, drafted by the Brewers in 2021 before heading to Oklahoma State (where he hit 18 homers as a sophomore), was claimed by the Yankees in 2023 and traded to Colorado at the deadline. Now in his fourth pro season and first at Triple-A, Riggio’s hitting .278 with one homer in five games — showing promise as a dynamic second baseman. With another matchup against the Aviators today, he’s got a chance to build on this momentum and prove he’s ready for the next level.
