In Colorado’s 10-4 Cactus League win over San Francisco on Thursday, two Mississippi-connected players made an impression. Former Ole Miss star Drew Pomeranz, battling for a spot in the Rockies’ rotation, went five innings to get the win (beating Matt Cain, by the way). And McComb native and Meridian Community College product Corey Dickerson added another hit and an RBI to his ledger. Left-hander Pomeranz, the former first-round pick by Cleveland who struggled with the Rockies in 2012, has had a decent spring: 2-2, 5.50 ERA. He allowed 10 hits and two walks on Thursday but limited the Giants to three earned runs. “(I) have more in the tank (this year),” Pomeranz told mlb.com. “I can reach back when I need to.” Dickerson, an outfielder who is not on the 40-man roster, is hitting .409 with a homer and eight RBIs. The lefty-hitting Dickerson batted .274 with 13 homers in a partial Double-A season in 2012 and then played well in the Arizona Fall League. His chance will come.
