So much open area into which to drive balls (which we have done). Let's keep that up and not get homer happy.

I'm looking at YOU Mr. Rizzo!

When's the last time you hit a line drive? How about a gapper?

Twenty one pitches is ten pitches beyond a real nice at bat.

Joe has run himself out of position players in the SIXTH inning.

Time for a Schwarbomb.

Says the guy asking the players to not swing for HR's.

Probably doesn't help they are in thin air. Physically that takes more toll on athletes. Honestly I'm not sure I'd want Q in there long anyways. He wasn't terrible today but Almora really bailed him out twice.

Then again, if Heyward catches a can of corn if not for the sun, Q allowed two solo HRs in six innings. Hardly a bad day at Coors.

Yeah I mean like I said it wasn't a bad outing but he gave up a fair amount of hard contact. I'm just glad his swing and miss stuff seemed back and and his walks were gone.

Well, done Joe. Used all position players, and left your pitcher batting 4th the next inning.

Criminally bad in this one.

After the last hit, Heyward's season line is .267/.357/.417(116 wRC+). I still think there's more there but I'll take that.

He definitely looks better. Harder contact. Seems much less like an automatic out.

So much for "safety first".

STOP turning one run into two.

Rizzo should have made that catch on that "error" from Edwards. It wasn't that bad of a throw really.

Edwards sure got his defensive chances.
