Oberg's balk, wild pitch lead to 2 Brewers runs

DENVER -- With the Brewers leading the Rockies, 2-0, in Sunday's Game 3 of the National League Division Series from Coors Field, the sixth inning spun out of control for Colorado, leading to a pair of Milwaukee runs resulting from a balk and a wild pitch.

Rockies reliever Scott Oberg opened the frame by striking out Jesus Aguilar. Mike Moustakas followed with a single to left field, and Erik Kratz doubled him to third. Oberg struck out Orlando Arcia, giving him a chance to escape the inning without allowing a run, something of added importance for the Rockies, who had two total runs entering that point of the series.
