Game 138 - Colorado Rockies

Game 138 was another wild ride...felt like I was watching Game 128 but in a different section! One of those games they probably should have lost. Had the bases loaded twice and didn't score (left 11 on for the night). Got lucky with the umpire's ejection of Wilson in the 8th which ultimately lead to Matsui's (!) score tying hit. Kind of hate September baseball with the the deeper bench. It makes the manager do crazy things like managing like he is in an all-star game. Two pinch runners, Stewart pinch hitting in the bottom of the 3rd for Morales (who obviously didn't have it). Then crazy pinch hitting throughout the rest of the game. Atkins looked awful at the plate, can't believe he walked on 4 pitches in the bottom of the 9th which then brought up Atkins and his heroic basehit. All in all a good game.
