Hero to zero huh Toney? Lol

Just playing.

Crazy thing is this is definitely the worst loss I have when I was dominating on the mound, and definitely the most K's I've had in a loss.

Carlos Gomez receives POTG honors as his walk-off inside the parker wins the game and series for Milwaukee.

Scott lined out and Polanco grounded out to start the game for Colorado, Catalano then singled, stole second, and scored on a 2-out double from Biggs. Manana then doubled home Biggs to give the Rockies a early 2-0 lead.

Aoki led off the start by Chris Smart with a single, he then stole second before Weeks flew out. Smart quickly recovered and got Braun and Hart swinging on Knuckle Curves to end the threat.

After a 1-2-3 top of the 2nd from Rogers, Smart got Ramirez to strike out to start the inning and Lucroy to fly out before Gomez came up with a 2-out single. Betancourt then hit a long double off the right field wall to score Gomez and make it 2-1, Smart got rogers to hit a weak pop up to second to hold on to the lead.

Rogers recorded another 1-2-3 in the third to keep it at 2-1 Rockies, Smart responded with his own 1-2-3 getting Weeks and Braun swinging to end the inning.

It looked like Biggs had a single to start the fourth but a great jump throw from Weeks got him at first for the out and the Rockies couldn't do anything from there as Rogers records his third consecutive 1-2-3 inning. Smart got Hart swinging at a Knuckle Curve for the second straight at bat to begin his fourth inning of work, he then got Ramirez and Lucroy to fly out to record his second consecutive 1-2-3 inning.

Spencer absolutely hammered a pitch to deep left center for a lead off triple in the 5th. Smart struck out but Burke managed to get him home on a slow groundout to first, Scott then lined out to center to end the effort. Smart struck out Gomez and Betancourt before allowing a pinch hit single to Jean Segura. He then got Aoki to groundout three pitches later to finish his 5th inning of work.

Badenhop was brought in to start the 6th, he got Polanco to tap out before striking out Catalano and getting Biggs to groundout. Weeks hit a lead off single to start Smart's 6th inning and he then stole 2nd despite a great throw from Biggs. Smart bounced right back and got Braun swinging for the third time before a single from Hart put runners on the corners with only one away, Ramirez hit a deep fly to right scoring Weeks from third and cutting the lead to one. Smart then got Lucroy swinging on his 99th pitch to hold on to his one run lead.

Narveson comes in for the Brewers to start the 7th, and promptly gets Manana to flyout before giving up back to back to Rodecker and Spencer to put two on with one out and the pitcher due up. After throwing 6 strong frames and 99 pitches Smart is pinch hit for with Bull Brom to try and extend the Rockies lead, he however flies out to the track for the second out but does advance the runner to third. Narveson tightens up though and gets Burke to end the frame. Guy Heard comes in for the Rockies in the bottom half. He gets Gomez to popout before giving up a solo shot to Betancourt tying the game at 3-3, Urbina is then brought in to pitch. Urbina gets the pinch hitter Maldonado to ground out and Aoki to strike out to finish off the 7th.

Scott gets the 8th off to a bang for the Rockies as he rips the very first pitch of the game from Peralta into the gap for a double. However Polanco, Catalano, and Biggs all strikeout stranding him at second. Urbina gets Weeks reaching for the first out, Braun to foul tip into the glove for his 4th k of the game and the second out, and Hart to weakly pop up in foul territory to send it to the 9th all knotted up at 3.

Manana grounds out to first to begin the 9th, Rodecker and Spencer watch strike three to end the frame. The Rockies bring in Zumaya to try and force extra innings. Zumaya gets the first two batters before Gomez hits a long drive to left and Catalano crashes into the wall trying to make the catch but can't and Gomez comes in to score giving the Brewers the win on a inside the park walkoff home run!!!

Hey guys I've decided to do the player stat updates after every other series instead of every series just to make all the typing worth the effort.

Also I'm gonna try and start taking the POTG photos from the games, at least for our team.

[emcee143]

Eagerly awaiting my first start. Great job so far man.
