The Colorado Rockies scored three runs in the bottom of the ninth inning against the St. Louis Cardinals but the problem was they needed atleast four to send the game into extra innings.  Back to back doubles by Chris Iannetta and Clint Barmes scored three runs but with Brames on second base Jeff Baker flied out to center field to end the game with the score 6-5.

I will give the team credit for coming back and atleast making the game intersting in the last inning.  They showed a little bit of emotion out there atleast.

Mark Redman got pounded on the mound as he only pitched 2 2/3 innings.  Redman got pulled after giving up nine hits and five runs very quickly in the game.

The Rockies bullpen did a great job after coming in for Redman however.  Jason Grilli pitched 3 1/3 innings and only allowed one hit.  Manny Corpas tossed two innings and allowed four hits and one run. (What else is new), Ryan Speier pitched the ninth inning and allowed one hit but no runs.

The Rockies are now 12-21 on the season.  I just don’t know if they have what it takes to go on a nice 10 game winning streak at this point in the season and get back to the .500 mark.  What do you think Rockies fans?  Rockies Blog
