It's easy to look for one hero, or one goat, or one pivotal play in a baseball game, but sometimes the sport provides us with a game that features more than one of all of those things. Friday night's match-up between the Rockies and Reds at Coors Field was such a contest, featuring numerous twists and turns, as well as heroics and gaffes from both sides.
The win expectancy chart last night looked like a particularly fun rollercoaster, with the Rockies' chances of victory falling below 20% in the fourth inning, before rising back to 60% after a rally, only to fall under 20% again in the eighth, before shooting up to almost 90% later that inning, and that wasn't even the end of the ride.
