The Rockies took a series from San Diego, won the opener of the next series, and are looking to get a little momentum going this 2nd week of June. A 9-run showing, 6 off of Clayton Kershaw, always helps that.
The Rockies have historically hit Billingsley well, to the tune of a .859 OPS and a 4.95 ERA. This is the kind of game the Rockies need to get up fast and get after, and get into that wounded gazelle of a bullpen the Dodgers are throwing out these days. Bills has been somewhat mediocre over his past 4 starts, with a 4.50 ERA and allowing a .844 OPS - the kinds of numbers the Rockies should be able to put up tonight.

If it wasn't his fault why did he spend like 4 hrs. catching curveball and sliders in the dirt yesterday?

Are we really having this conversation?
A wild pitch is on the pitcher. If the catcher corrals it, good work, but if he can’t it’s still on the pitcher.
A pitch that hits the dirt before the catcher is called a Wild Pitch, and it’s on the pitcher.

Wait. What does that have to do with it?
He could have called for ball up and in and if the pitcher screws it up, it’s still a WP.

Not always, but higher probability of them scoring some.
Its on both the catcher and the pitcher, but the catcher cant expect a ball to land where he places his glove. Stay on your toes and expect the unexpected and everything shall be fine for CDI…

Pitch count was already over 100.
A 6-run lead should be a good way not to unnecessarily stretch a guy.
I don't hold to the 100 pitch rule
I’m a Nolan Ryan kinda guy! But I’m really not upset that he pulled him, it just looks bad now.

No one is saying that the play shouldn't have been made
however, it could have probably( though not 100% certain)been avoided by not taking out Helton, and keeping Wiggy at 3rd.

I can understand wondering what the point is.
But I guess it just doesn’t bother me at all. If Nelson makes a better throw or Wiggy makes the play, no one says much about it.
True
We got away with it, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a bad move. I’m guess what I’m asking is why risk it for 1/2 an inning? It doesn’t make any sense to me

Why was Wigginton at first?
If Tracy leaves well enough alone, Helton scoops the throw from Nelson and we win 6-1
You're sure?
He gave Helton a whole half-inning off, which isn’t likely to earn us any extra work from him in the long run…
…and in return his replacement skillethanded the throw from Nelson and allowed four runs to score
That is more on Nelson
he had all day to make that throw. I think pulling people for a half inning is stupid as well, but it was a 6-0 game, it shouldn’t have been any concern at all.

Terrific...I still don't blame him.
Nelson has to make that throw, while Ty Wigginton is a major league baseball player and hence, should make that dig. Hell, I make it 18 out of 20 times in softball. (Before you attack me, our shortstop throws at least 60 MPH.)

one bad throw does not result in 5 runs scoring.

How do those 4 runs score without runners getting on base?
A lot of things happened in that inning besides the throw is the point. If any one of those things had resulted in an out instead of what happened, the inning is over.
Taking Todd out in the 9th up 6 runs makes a hell of a lot of sense, as does leaving Herrera in at 2nd in that situation.

3 in row
I started watching the game tonight with the Rockies up 6-1 and then Belisle gave up that double to Gwynn. At that point I decided I was bad luck and changed the channel and left the room. Haha, at least they hung on to win the game.
Go Rockies!
Rockies Fever!
That was frightening
But the fact that they hung on is a great sign. In May, that lead would have been coughed up.

Talks all dramatically about how last year her daughter’s hamster went missing. Poor thing. Then she says, “Now, I’m not saying this is why the Giants won the World Series. But I’m not taking any chances.” Then she opens the back door and sets the hamster down outside and closes the door again. I laughed so hard.
