The Reds beat the Rockies 4-3 on Saturday afternoon at Coors Field for their third straight win and securing a series victory.

Outfielder Austin Hays led the way with two home runs and his fifth home run since coming off the injured list a couple of weeks ago. ago. Coors Field was the only current MLB park that Hays had yet to play in before this weekend.

"All 30," Hays told Jim Day postgame. "This one had been elusive for the last three years or so. I am glad I finally got to come here."

After his two-home run game, it's safe to say Hays agrees with the sentiment that it's a hitter's park.

"It's great," Hays continued. "I know the ball flies here. That's what everyone says. I was able to get a couple in the air today."

The Reds will go for the series sweep on Sunday at 3:10 ET.
