The Miami Marlins fell 6-3 to the Colorado Rockies on July 1 at Coors Field, marking a chaotic opener to July. Max Meyer, despite a strong performance that lowered his ERA to 2.53, was hindered by errors and unearned runs. The Rockies took the lead with a solo home run from Mickey Moniak and later scored five runs in the fifth inning, including a two-run homer by Hunter Goodman.
