DENVER -- Not even the interpretation of the procedure for replay challenges is working the way the Rockies would like.
Their seventh loss in eight games, 8-4 to the Astros on Wednesday night, was still in doubt in the third inning when a replay ruling went against the Rockies -- and led to the ejection of manager Walt Weiss. The Rockies left Coors Field still convinced they were correct.
Of course, Rockies starting pitcher Kyle Kendrick gave up two more home runs to raise his total to 18, and the Astros went deep four times to lift their total to 10 in three straight victories over Colorado.
