When the Colorado Rockies walked off the field in San Francisco on June 28, DJ LeMahieu had just hit a two-run homer in the top of the ninth inning to give the Rockies a 9-8 victory. The blast snapped a four-game losing streak (including dropping the first two games of a three-game series with the Giants) and pulled Colorado (now with a 39-42 mark) within eight games of division-leading Arizona.
Luke Mullins wrote a great article about LeMahieu’s homer and its effects that you can read by clicking here. Simply put, however, the Rockies turned their season around after that blast.
