Rockies 3, Astros 2: Rockies redeem themselves in a strange game of baseball

The Colorado Rockies beat the Houston Astros in walk off fashion with a home run by Charlie Blackmon after strange game of baseball. Jon Gray pitched seven brilliant innings, only allowing a single hit, two runs (only one earned), two walks, and six strikeouts. The two Rockies relievers looked solid too. Adam Ottavino threw nine pitches in the eighth—seven for strikes that resulted in two strikeouts in one inning of work. After a dismal outing yesterday that ended up costing the Rockies, Wade Davis pitched the ninth inning, walking one batter and striking out two on 23 pitches.
