The Colorado Rockies made 11 innings worth of outs against the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night. Eight innings worth of those outs came via strikeout. You read that correctly: they struck out a staggering 24 times, with each hitter who appeared striking out at least once.
And they still won! Clutch hitting and a lot of gritty pitching led the Rockies to a 5-4 win on the road in 11 innings.
With the game tied in the top of the 11th and with two guys on and two strikes against him, Reynolds got on a top of a high fastball to single in the winning run.
