He goes to 2nd on the throw to the plate. 4 to 0, Rockies. Terry Tompkins singles and Grimes scores. 5 to 0, Rockies. I does not look like Reilly will get his 10th win today....

I am not sure if we can cover all the positions if we do tie this game up.... Full count and Charles ground a hit up the middle and a run scores! 5 to 3, Rockies. Frank Wiginton strikes out.
