DENVER – When good baseball teams get together and play a contest it’s usually quiet to start. The starting pitchers command the pace and momentum and it’s won late into the evening. We saw this on Monday. The National League’s two best teams crossed paths in Denver, both coming in on heaters. The Washington Nationals got to the Colorado Rockies in the middle inning but the Denver nine answered late to win it 8-4.
Charlie Blackmon told BSN Denver over the weekend, “two-out hits are a big momentum shift—to get those hits and score those extra runs—It can change a game.
