For the Chicago Cubs, and their legions of fans who turned Coors Field into Wrigley Field West, Sunday afternoon was a party topped off by a wild 9-7 victory.
The game ended when Nolan Arenado was thrown out at home attempting to score from third with two out and the bases loaded on a would-be wild pitch by relief pitcher Brandon Morrow. Catcher Wilson Contreras threw to Morrow, who applied the tag. Arenado was called safe by the home plate umpire but a replay review overturned the call and the game was over.
For the Rockies, who fell to 3-6 at home in front of a sellout crowd of 48,137, it was a messy affair.
