August 5 at Coors Field in Denver, CO
ROOT Sports
The Rockies' scored twice in the bottom of the ninth to tie the game against Fernando Rodney,
then Michael McKenry hit a walk-off, two-run home run in the bottom of
the 11th off Mayckol Guaipe for a 7-5 win.
It was the second come back for Colorado as right fielder Carlos Gonzalez launched a long, three-run home in the sixth to tie things up at 3-3. Gonzalez's nickname is "CarGo", and how do we know this? Because the Rockies' announcers, Drew Goodman & George Frazier, say it constantly. Let's take a look at Wednesday afternoon's CarGo count.
Total CarGos: 47
[42 in nine innings, 5 in extra innings]
Average CarGos/inning: 4.2
[4.6 average in nine innings]
Number of times said during second-inning at bat: 11
Some CarGos
"CarGo going to cruise into second"
"CarGo hitting .280"
"Bump in the road in the sixth, a three-run home run by CarGo"
"This ball lined toward CarGo"
"CarGo's on deck"/"You have CarGo on deck"/On deck, CarGo" (all said during an eighth inning at bat by Nolan Arenado)
"In the air to CarGo in right, he's got it"
"Not a bad time for CarGo to bunt"
