Rox get a solo HR to CF in the first.
Singles by Smith, Caratini, and Walker sandwich a Diaz GIDP to score a run.
Mid 2, tied at 1.
That was Gordon’s 4th unintentional BB of the year
Astros get a hit an a walk to lead off the third. A pickoff throw into CF moves Dubon to third, and Jake beats out a double play ball for a FC and a 2-1 lead.
Tuve walks to move Jake to second with one out.
Cam lines a single to RF, Jake holds at third. Probably should have been sent as that throw was going to second all the way.
Caratini CRUSHES A SALAMI TO RIGHT AND IT’S 6-1

I knew that curve Caratini blasted was up…I didn’t realize it was this up
Diaz grounds 6-3, Walker stings a single to CF, and that will do it for the Rockies starter.
Walker’s numbers at Coors and against the Rockies in general are ridiculous

His numbers in Dodger Stadium ain’t too shabby either:

Cam Smith flashing the leather in right field!! Saved a few runs with that catch.
Gordon does the opposite of flashing the leather by making multiple stupid decisions on a roller down the line. E1 and the run scores to make it 6-4.
Oh, I forget, there aren’t errors any more. IF single.

Which one is the bad team?
Next play is even more FUBAR. Meyers sells a “catch” on a ball obviously off the wall. Dubon gets the relay and neither he nor Altuve bother to tag any runner or base.
Umpires rule that Altuve ultimately touched second, which he finally did. 8-6-4 FC.
Gordon looks like Jay Thomas
The Astros, as we know, will have to keep scoring runs in Denver.
Dear offense: you must keep scoring.
Colorado chip-chip-chipping away. Astros need to saddle up and score a few more runs.
3 posts in a row making the same observation within a minute of each other. Great minds, etc….well, mine not included.

Hey I got an idea let’s trade Walker to the Rockies. Maybe in return the Astros get a left handed batter and a team doctor.
