At 6-feet-5, Dexter Fowler chews up real estate with his long legs. Those strides ran him straight into the record book as he set a Rockies season record with 12 triples. “I didn’t even know about it until (Dodgers third baseman) Casey Blake said, ‘Was that your 100th triple? Because they just asked for the ball.’ It’s awesome,” Fowler said.
Rough stretch.
Relief pitcher Matt Belisle, who leads the Rockies with 61 appearances, has allowed five runs in his last two outings, while recording just four outs.
Call him iPodsednik.
Multiple hits? There’s an app for that. Dodgers outfielder Scott Podsednik is batting .325 since the all-star break, has 12 games with at least three hits and is a big reason Manny Ramirez’s days are over with Los Angeles.
