Barnes goes all out for win-preserving grab

SEATTLE -- There were two unanimous schools of thought on Brandon Barnes' sensational diving catch in the left-field corner that preserved the Rockies' 3-2 victory.

One, nobody -- including Barnes himself -- thought he could even get to the ball. Two, it was the play of the game from every point of view.

With the Rockies clinging to the one-run lead in the eighth, speedy Ketel Marte drew a one-out walk off reliever Jairo Diaz. Kyle Seager followed with an opposite-field drive slicing down the left-field line.
