On a perfect late-spring night, the Reds won for the eighth time in their last 11 games and clinched the three-game series by winning the first two games.

Frankie Montas of the Cincinnati Reds works against the Colorado Rockies during the second inning at Coors Field in Denver on Tuesday, June 4, 2024. Somewhere, Hideo Nomo breathed a sigh of relief. His legacy as the only pitcher to throw a no-hitter at Coors Field lives on.

“The thing I struggled with, and what I thought I saw some of my teammates struggle with, was that he was changing the shape of his slider. He would throw his cutter, he would throw a bigger slider, and he would throw a normal one. They would come out looking pretty similar, so you have to tip your cap to him.”

Montas entered Tuesday’s game with a 4-2 and a 4.60 ERA. But he pitched like an ace against the offensively challenged Rockies, who lost their fourth consecutive game — a streak of futility in which they have scored five runs. Colorado broke up the shutout in the ninth. Diaz hit a two-out single and Brendan Rodgers drove Diaz home with a double off right-hander Buck Farmer.
