Rockies blow 4-1 lead - The Denver Post
Included is a quote from Todd Helton, who was hit in the shin by a Carlos Gonzalez foul ball in the ninth inning.
"It hurt bad," he said. "It was just one of those freak things. I think I'm going to be OK. We'll have to see tomorrow."
Though he is fighting his way through a slump, the Rockies really can't afford to lose Helton to injury. The defense at first base would instantly take a huge hit with Garrett Atkins or Jason Giambi being thrown out there.

Stewart's power stroke returning | ColoradoRockies.com: News
Though he didn't show much of it last night, Ian Stewart has been hitting the ball well lately. Hopefully a trip back home will help him continue to do so. The Rockies need him to perform well down the stretch. His bat is in an important place in the lineup.
Brian Roberts and Kendry Morales headline my All-Underrated Team - Ted Keith - SI.com
Keith picks Huston Street as the closer for his 2009 All-Underrated Team. Prior to his injury, Street had very similar numbers to Mariano Rivera (aside from ERA).

Ken Rosenthal doesn't think the Giants will catch the Rockies. I wonder if he'll change his mind after seeing last night's events unfold.
Sandwich Awards: New York Yankees, Joe Mauer/Michael Cuddyer, Hal McCoy - ESPN
I'm not extremely keen on bringing this up right now, but Rob Neyer does some statistical comparisons for this season's "amazing comeback" by the Rockies to that of 2007. As it turns out, 2007 was a bigger feat. Check out the article to see why.
Hard-luck Hammel not focused on stats | ColoradoRockies.com: News
When four Rockies starting pitchers reached 10 wins, it seemed only a matter of time before right-hander Jason Hammel would hit double figures. But wins have not been coming for Hammel. Let's hope that changes tonight.

Star Wars night at Dodger Stadium. They don’t say which character throws out the first pitch. I’d vote for Yoda, but I don’t have a vote. Characters will be signing autographs. Will Walrus man be there?
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
And it's a game against the Rockies.

I need to press the panic button!!!! Where is the little red button, called the panic button? It summons pitchers of the past and we win….(gasp) games!
“Gentlemen, there is no fighting in the war room!”-Dr.Strangelove
Giants have shown a fortitude that is just amazing..
and luck is favoring the brave, Giants have got some very favorable pitching matchup in the next two series…Giants have won the one non-favorable matchup against Dodgers, while Rox have lost the heavily favorable match up against Arizona..
i have been waiting for Giants to wilt.. And at this point it doesn’t look like they will wilt. If Rox don’t wilt, the WC could come down to the last series..
Maybe the team can't handle pressure?
During the early part of the season, Hurdle probably felt a lot of pressure to produce, making him continually fiddle with the lineup and be very re-active to anything (benching Tulo for 1st strike swinging).
When Tracy came in, he probably didn’t feel too much pressure and was able to stabilize the lineup and just let the team play to their potential. Now they’re in a pressure packed situation, where they have to win in order to keep the chasers at bay.
The team, from Tracy on down, are not responding to this. Tracy has been juggling the lineup endlessly, benching some players for poor performance, but still seems to want a hands off approach. Just his faith that everyone is going to break out of their slump.
In the meantime, every player (except for Torrealba) seems to think that they are going to hit a HR during their AB. Which is foolish at Petco park, and foolish in general, since they’ll win more games getting solid hits than they will with the occasional HR. The patience at the plate seems to be gone, leading to a lot of first or second pitch outs. Even some of the better hitters (Helton, Smith) seem to be falling into that trap instead of fouling of pitch after pitch until they get the one they want.
I also don’t understand the reluctance of Tracy or Apodaca to defend their pitchers when they’re getting squeezed. It seemed obvious that the ump was ignoring corner strikes last night calling everything a ball. This led to extra walk, a lot more pitches thrown and visible frustration for Marquis.
Torrealba was probably warned during the 14 inning confrontation game to not do anything to “show up” the umps, but the coaches should try to defend the team and not give so much control to the umps. Mike Hargrove was pretty vocal after an ump made bad calls against Fuentes the other night.
I think it's part the Dbacks have been playing good ball lately
and part Marquis is regressing to the mean.

Now yhou sound like the D Backs announcers
they spent like 4 innings talking and making stupid jokes about “regressing to the mean”
¡Vamos Rocosos!
Marquis isn't as good as his ERA suggests
yes, his sinker is fixed, and that makes him better than his numbers the past few years.
but he had been giving up homers at an unsustainably low pace, and now the pendulum is swinging back.

I understand what it means
It’s just that it seemed like the only thing the announcers could talk about last night… Well that and whether or not to give a contract to a certain foul ball catching fan…
Not that the analysis is flawed, just (for me now) stale

oh ok

That's because
Sutton is a big stathead, and Grace is very much not. Last night wasn’t Grace, though, it was Matt Williams, so it was refreshing to hear him expressing a bit of understanding of stats.
Sutton and Grace often banter back and forth, making fun of each other for that very reason.

Did you hear the announcers during the Tulo HR AB?
MLB network showed that, and I don’t think they said anything about any of the 4 or 5 pitches of that AB. They were more focused on talking about another announcer who was going to be returning to AZ and possibly honored or something.
That is a small sample size, but as a baseball fan I get annoyed when announcers ignore the game completely and go off on an unrelated tangent. (The Rockies announcers do this sometimes too)
You mean Ernie Harwell?
The 92 year old Tigers announcer who was just diagnosed with cancer?
I get annoyed at it too, don’t worry.

They certainly can play better than their record suggests
But I think that record suggests that they are not “just really good”.

Keeping it close enough that they cannot compeletly abandon hope, but far enough away to be forever out of reach.

I am happy because I get the Rockies feed on MLB.tv even though it is a road game

Hmm
I suppose I could pay the $1 for AtBat.TV on the iphone – probably worth it. Only 3 more days til the homestand.

Second biggest problem: crime.
Third biggest problem: having a coach that sucks.

has proven what an awesome QB Troy Smith really is…. he should write his defense a TY note for winning him that Heisman.

he still has a chance to be a QB somewhere
not like he pulled a Ryan Leaf…and a ton of Ohio State players have made it in the NFL so are they not allowed a flop here or there?…how about Arizona what have they produced

Tedy Bruschi?

The point is that every year Ohio State is terribly overrated, and every year they prove it. Nobody EXPECTS anything from Arizona football.

its not like Ohio State is the worst team in the world
thats what i hate when everybody says crap about them i get very defensive because it bothers me…they are still 4-3 in BCS bowls in the last 8 yrs and have a championship…we lost a game last year vs Texas that we should of won for sure…and last week was the same thing…they will win it all again in the next 10 yrs i am confident of that

with one exception, you consistently get into great bowl games and lose them. Ohio State is truly the envy of the college football world. They’re like the Buffalo Bills of the NCAA.

Last 4 sundays have been pretty much ups and downs..
4th sunday – Jimenez wins the duel with Lincecum
3rd sunday – Renteria Grand slam
2nd sunday – Giants losing in extra innings while Rockies blow Arizona
last sunday – Marquis and Co blowing the 3-0 lead to Padres… While Giants whoop Dodgers..
and with three more sundays, I wouldn’t mind this trend continuing…
uh oh Giants mounting a comeback
bases loaded

not as bad as Manny's and you'll never convince me otherwise

Dexter Fowler - 2nd Best Name in Baseball:)
Someone needs more hits and runs- Brad Hawpe, I'm looking at you...:)
I agree, but it's pretty bad
that said, Manny’s fielding hasn’t been egregiously godawful. Hawpe’s has been far worse (according to UZR – which I’ll still admit I’m not 100% sold on).
That said, Manny has been worth 2.8 WAR, Ethier 2.8 WAR, Kemp 5.6 WAR, Juan Pierre 1.8 WAR for a total of 13 WAR.
Brad Hawpe 0.9 WAR (this is very bad folks), Smith 2.9 WAR, Dex 0.7 WAR (and UZR hates his fielding too), Gonzalez 1.8 WAR, Spills 0.3 WAR, good for a total of 6.6 WAR.
That means the Dodgers OF is like 2x as good as ours, all things considered.
It should be noted that Gonzalez plays as an average CF in Coors, and an excellent LF. I’m wondering if that really does speak to UZR not adapting to Coors well.
