Through two games at Coors Field, the the San Francisco Giants had beaten the Colorado Rockies in two very different ways. And neither way felt like a fitting tribute to the Banquet Beer’s park.
During Tuesday’s 10-4 win, the Giants tied a SF-era franchise record with eight doubles, and threw a triple in there for good measure. Yet despite the nine extra-base hits, the Giants didn’t hit a single ball over the fence ... neither did the Rockies, though the teams combined for five balls that would have been out in Oracle Park.
