Christian Walker made an impact in the 5-1 Colorado win over Kansas City. Walker, who finished 4th in the AL in doubles with 41 in 2019, went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The Rockies are now 50-60, while the Royals fall to 48-62.

With Colorado leading 2-0 in the bottom of the fifth, Walker hit a slider from Esteban Muñóz for a 3-run home run. It was his 15th home run of the season and put the Rockies ahead, 5-0.

Walker attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
