Sullivan Finds His Groove, Slowly

Sean Sullivan, the Rockies’ 23-year-old rookie pitcher, made his home debut at Coors Field—his first time facing his childhood Red Sox heroes—and though the Rockies fell 5-2, Sullivan showed marked improvement over his shaky Wrigley outing. Pitching five innings, he gave up three runs and struck out three, but walked five batters. Still adjusting to MLB, he’s working to find his rhythm, buoyed by a pitching coach visit and a clutch automated strike zone call that helped him escape a third-inning jam. While his walk-heavy performance was unusual, the manager believes he’s on the right track—and the team’s confident he’ll soon find his groove.
