Getting your player ready...
The Rockies have had several unsung heroes in the bullpen, where Joe Beimel, Matt Belisle and Manuel Corpas have been outstanding. Beimel entered with runners at the corners in the seventh and got Alberto Callaspo to pop up, giving him 14 2/3 consecutive scoreless innings.
By the numbers.
Where have we seen numbers like this in late May? Never. The Rockies’ team ERA is under 4.00 at home and on the road — 3.70 on the road, 3.99 at Coors Field.
Running on empty.
As rundowns go, they don’t get much more bizarre than the one David DeJesus encountered in the fourth. DeJesus was caught off first and lasted long enough for the scoring to read: 1-3-6-1-4-6.
