Rockies Get Past Washington, 9-8
It took 10 innings, but the Colorado Rockies were able to beat the Washington Nationals, 9-8, at Nationals Park. Sterlin Thompson provided some offensive muscle for Colorado. He went 5-5 with 2 doubles and 3 singles. He scored 3 times. Kyle Freeland earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.2 innings. His record is now 5-1. Case Williams notched his 9th save of the season.

The Nationals had been locked in a 8-8 tie with the Rockies going into the top of the tenth inning. That changed quickly when the 25-year old right fielder Cole Carrigg came to the plate. Carrigg hit a run-scoring double on a 1-2 fastball from Washington hurler Kirk McCarty. It was Carrigg's 28th double of the year.

"Both teams had plenty of clutch hits," said Carrigg. "It made for an exciting game."

Washington has now lost 4 straight.
