Carlos Gonzalez hits a two-run walk-off home run to beat the Dodgers

The Rockies' dynamic duo left the mighty Dodgers feeling mighty blue Saturday night at Coors Field.

Carlos Gonzalez launched a two-run, walk-off homer off Yimi Garcia in the ninth inning, lifting the Rockies to an 8-6 victory. DJ LeMahieu opened the inning by drawing a walk.

If the magic moment belonged to CarGo, who hit his 39th homer of the season, the night belonged to the incomparable Nolan Arenado, who waited for CarGo in the mosh pit at home plate and then gave him a bear hug.

Arenado's began the night with a teaser.

In the Dodgers' first at-bat, the Rockies lined up in an extreme shift to the right side of the infield for the left-handed hitting Chase Utley, leaving Arenado all by his lonesome on the left side.
