Giants @ Rockies

Game 2

WHAT A GAME!

This was so long ago I don’t remember what happened pre-game but on the mound for the Rockies was Jorge De La Rosa and on the mound for the Giants was Madison Bumgarner.

The Giants got to work early in the 1st when Buster Posey hit a sac fly to right field which then scored Pablo Sandoval.  The Rockies ended up going 1-2-3 in the first. The Giants scored yet again in the second on a single by Brandon Crawford scoring Brett Pill. A few batters later Marco Scutaro singled which scored Crawford and then Sandoval came up and single which scored Bumgarner.  The Rockies finally got on the board in the bottom of the second by a fielder’s choice ground out by Jordan Pacheco. At the end of two Giants lead Rockies 4-1.

Jorge did work in the third sitting down the Giants. The Rockies had a little better luck in their half of the third because they ended up scoring 3 runs to tie the game up at 4.

  Obviously the Giants didn’t like that and they got another run in the fourth inning making it 5-4.

The next run was scored by the Rockies in the bottom of the fifth by a line drive to left field by the baby bull Wilin Rosario, tying it up at 5. This inning kept going and it was very magical for the Rockies.

These are the types of innings as a fan you live for! With Carlos Gonzalez on third, Baby Bull on second, and Dj LeMahieu on first Jordan Pacheco was up to bat. On first pitch swinging he drilled a ball 15+ rows in left field for his 1st ever Grand Slam! This was absolutely amazing and you had to be there to feel the intensity. Below is the link to the video so you can watch it for yourself.

His Granny ended up putting the Rockies on top 5-9.

The 7th was a very stressful inning because the Giants came back and scored 3 runs, making it 8-10 Rockies still on top. The next inning the Giants got one more run on a Homerun by Buster Posey making it 9-10.

  Thankfully that was all that was scored on either side, game over Rockies take this one 9-10.

The Giants tried to crawl back in it but with Jordie’s granny they just couldn’t complete it.

Congrats to JP on his first ever granny! This is where I’m leaving this one!
