On the Giants podcast with Michael:
On Tuesday night the Colorado Rockies (24-32) Charlie Blackmon was the game hero with his three run home run but on Wednesday night with the scored tied 1-1 in the last of the tenth Blackmon was charged with an error after trying to field a slow ground ball that went by him hit by the San Francisco Giants (30-25) Luis Gonzalez that scored ghost runner Donavon Walton from second base for a 2-1 win.
Walton was the designated ghost runner to start the extra inning stanza in the bottom of the tenth as pinch hitter Brandon Crawford who didn’t start because a hampering left quad popped up for the first out of the inning.
Luis Gonzalez now facing Rockies reliever Carlos Estevez (1-3) hit a slow roller to right field and the ball got away from Blackmon and scored Donavon. Give Gonzalez a RBI single and charge Blackmon with a fielding error.
