Rockies 5, Braves 2: Positive Jorge leads Rox to series victory

In what was his best start since the home opener vs. San Diego, Jorge De La Rosa kept the Braves in check for seven innings on his way to victory number five of 2010. The win also gave the Rockies their third straight and yet another home series victory over a playoff contender.

De La Rosa threw a modest 91 pitches in six innings, and was possibly taken out as a precautionary measure after showing some pain during the bottom half of the seventh before surrendering hits to Matt Diaz and Alex Gonzalez. Either way, he was terrific, allowing just two runs on six hits while striking out seven and maintaining a 12-to-2 GO/FO ratio. Matt Belisle allowed a hit in the eighth, but struck out a batter and induced a GIDP. Huston Street followed with a clean ninth inning that included a strikeout for his third consecutive save.

The Rox took a 2-0 lead in the first inning on a two-run homer by Carlos Gonzalez - his 26th - that plated Eric Young Jr. after he led off with a ground-rule double for the first of his three hits on the evening. Gonzalez had two hits, as did Dexter Fowler, who drove in two runs in the bottom of the eighth on a single after Clint Barmes struck out swinging but reached on a passed ball.

Seth Smith contributed to the scoring as well, as he (hopefully) slump-busted by obliterating a ball into the upper deck in the sixth inning for his 15th bomb of the season.

The Rockies now sit 5 games out of the Wildcard spot after Philadelphia's loss to Houston.

If only we could figure out how to make the catcher miss the ball on strike three to Clint Barmes more often, we’d really have something. If that could happen to Miguel Olivo a time or two as well, even better.

That’s as good as JDLR has looked since April, I’d say. Very good slider tonight. Hopefully he’s just got a blister and it’s nothing too serious.

FWIW

I saw the Howard ejection, that was the second strike in the at bat that had been called by the third base umpire, on the first he put his hands on his hips and glared at the ump. So he was already treading on thin ice, and then he flipped his bat away after strike three and was tossed immediately. Dude needs to be smarter than that.

Oh I definitely didn't do it

It’s actually bad writing

no Major League Baseball player has ever struck out more than five times in a nine-inning game. However, striking out 5 times has been done. This feat has been achieved 58 times, most recently by Ryan Howard

This would suggest Howard Ked 5 times in a 9 inning game, which he didn’t. I would suggest an edit, but I’ve never written anything on wiki and don’t really know the process

This is the same man who helped kill baseball in Montreal, bailed to buy the Marlins,

and did his part to help pave the way for the Expos to move to a city that couldn’t support two previous franchises. Remember that.

No, he made a "fight song"

or something for the Marlins. It’s fairly awful.

Of course, being derived from Creed, that was almost inevitable…

85-77

If the Rockies continue with their home/road splits through the remaining games, they would finish 85-77, obviously not good enough. Gotta pick up some games on the road, because it’s tough to assume we’ll win 2 of 3 in every series

The Rockies totally got a shoutout on today's episode of Warehouse 13.

One of the characters is from Denver and went back to her high school reunion. Long story short, she got into a convo with some guys about the Rockies and pitching, with both JDLR and Jimenez mentioned by name. Cool!
