Rockies 19, Diamondbacks 2: German Márquez homers (and also pitches well)

Summarizing a game like Wednesday night’s game is basically deciding on which weird thing to focus on. Is it the catcher playing second, or the catcher playing third? Is it the 18 runs the Rockies scored in the first four innings, or is it the fact that a position player was already pitching for the Diamondbacks in the fourth inning? Really though, the decision is pretty easy for this one.

In the Rockies 19-2 win over the Diamondbacks, the weirdest and most memorable thing to happen was starting pitcher German Márquez hitting a roughy 440 home run off of utility infielder Daniel Descalso.
