Around SBN: Miikka Kiprusoff Wins 300th Game, Buffalo Crushes Boston

Rockies 4, Reds 3: A laser and a well-oiled machine prove to be the recipe for another Rockies winner

Behind a three-run home run from Carlos Gonzalez and a well-pitched game by rookie starter Jhoulys Chacin, the Rockies reeled off their fifth consecutive victory and now find themselves ten games above .500 for the first time since losing to Cincinnati in their first game following the All-Star break.

After Eric Young Jr. and Dexter Fowler (each of whom had two hits) set the table with consecutive singles, CarGo drove a fastball on the outer half of the plate over the wall in left field to put the Rox up 3-0 on Johnny Cueto. It was his 32nd homer of the season to go along with 100 RBIs. The Reds got within a run after Melvin Mora was tardy in trying to force Joey Votto out at third instead of going to first to get the out on a Ramon Hernandez ground ball, and Drew Stubbs cashed in with a two-run single. Miguel Olivo, who had three hits on the evening, doubled in Seth Smith to put Colorado back up by two but was thrown out at third trying to stretch it into a triple. Jonny Gomes homered off of Rafael Betancourt in the eighth to make it a one-run game again, but the Reds were unable to get anything else off of Raffy and Huston Street, who earned his 16th save.

Jhoulys Chacin was quite solid in six innings, allowing two runs on six hits while striking out five. Matt Belisle tossed a scoreless seventh that was aided by a double play. Betancourt struck out two in his inning of work, despite giving up the homer.

Haha funny that everybody puts this pic as their wallpaper

I just saved it to my phone. I put it as my ‘lock screen’ and then I took it off cuz I have another Colorado rockies picture as my lock screen that hasn’t lost us a game yet. Yeah, I’m horribly superstitious.

To be honest,

I never thought that image would last past 2007 when I made that. Just to be fair, one of the brew pubs in Lodo started the BelieveR thing that year. Don’t remember which one. I think the whole “R” thing now has a life of it’s own.

Ah...

Here’s mine:

I believe in the future, the reality of the present, the sweet memories of the past, living is more than breathing, spring will came if we wait, patiently, believing, hoping.

But the winter is long and we must endure its cold.

I believe in the future, the reality of what is to come, the sweet memories that are yet to occur, probably, eventually, someday.

And I believe in hope and anticipation: the idea that we’ll meet again, and counting down the day until we do.

So…I wrote it on life, but it can be applied to baseball, of course, since it is life.
More of an offseason piece, though : )

Does anyone ever get the feeling that these Rockies are underachieving?

In 3 of the past 4 seasons, they’ve let themselves reach a dire, nearly-unrecoverable positions only to redeem themselves with an improbable streak. The Rockies have had 2 winning streaks unlike anything I’ve ever seen before and they might be in the midst of a third one (this time, from 10 games down) as we speak, especially with the home-heavy schedule.

Wouldn’t you all say that the Reds are the best team the Rockies have left on their schedule? Well, our boys have assured us that, at worst, they cannot lose this series.

by GalarragaForever on Sep 7, 2010 10:07 PM MDT reply actions  

I would agree that the Reds are the best team left on the schedule

The toughest may be a different story…they do still have to go to LA one more time, after all. Maybe it’ll be like Luke facing Vader again.

Didn’t realise the c-word was rude as he’d overheard it so often (not from his father, I must add!) and just thought it was descriptive.

I'm a student of musicals in general

Musicals as a genre interest me greatly, but probably not in the same sense to you.

I’m not fan of the musical in the same sense most of its fans are either. It’s not the subject matter (in fact, I actually quite loathe many of the characters), but rather its visceral sense and somewhat diverse, playful music that appeals to me. In other words, I like it moreso for its formal strategies than its actual content.

It was a GREAT night

Rockies win, Ghosts put up 4 in the 8th to win by one. I’ll have a lot of pics and video, of Campos and Swanner in particular, but it will take me a bit to process it all. If you want a peak at comments, just read my twitterfeed. But I do have this for you:

Also, Kyle Hancock was tracking pitches for Campos and invited me via twitter to come chat, but I didn’t see the message until the game was over.

Bumgarner’s inconsistent, and we pounded him once this year.

Cain has a 2.25 ERA since the break, so he’s not struggling. Lincecum shut you guys down last week, and appears back to form after tonight. Sanchez and Bumgarner shut you guys down as well last week.

DLR has gotten ahold of it as well

Even if you throw out last year’s second half, he has 8 straight starts with 3 ER or less. Sure, there’s no shutouts in there, but that just means he’s a little more consistent.

its also hard to imagine that Tulo and Gonzalez will be able to stay as hot as they have the rest of the way, and we all know that the rest of your team doesn’t hit well outside of Tulo, Cargo and Helton, but like I said, there’s still too much baseball to be played for anyone to be predicting sweeps.

outside of Torres, all of our hitters (Sanchez, Burrell, Ross, Guillen) are doing what they have done before. Posey really is THAT good, as one can see.

^ that is what my point above was. You can’t rely just on tulo and cargo, because when they don’t produce, who will?

by giant4life83 on Sep 7, 2010 11:24 PM MDT up reply actions  

None of them are worldbeaters

But Smith, Spilborghs, Giambi, Fowler, Mora, Olivo and Stewart have above league average wOBAs.

All those except Fowler/Mora have above league average OPS+. It’s not just those two and nothing else.

He is one to hope for

He could win a series by himself if he goes on one of his Player of the Week tears. I just worry that more playing time has exposed more weaknesses. He really seems to chase fastballs up and away

I’m not that much of a stat head. I know alot of people are, but I base most of my baseball knowledge off of what I see. Stats don’t show whether a guy looked good at the plate in a particular AB.

Stats can also be made to say anything about someone, as you see on ESPN too often.

by giant4life83 on Sep 7, 2010 11:31 PM MDT up reply actions  

I'm just giving you a reference, since you don't see the team as often

It appears to be Tulo/CarGo and some clowns since those two are hitting well and the rest aren’t as of now. But it hasn’t been that way all season. There’s a capable lineup surrounding them

You're spot on there.

Garcia was a big step up for them, but other than that, it’s Pujols/Holliday/Carp/Wainwright and a bunch of scrubs

He’s still very good at drawing walks and getting occasional hits. His OBP might as well have been all walks before August though.

Nice game, Rox!

Just got back from the ballpark. Solid pitching and some serious strike-throwing tonight. Chacin and Betancourt both came out throwing strikes and it paid off. The top of the lineup worked exactly as designed. The only flaw tonight was some over-aggressive baserunning, but it didn’t matter in the end. Well-played all around.
