Baseball is back. In what was surely no surprise to any of the 40,000 in attendance each night, the Rockies took two of three from the Dodgers over the weekend, punctuated by Bud Black’s 1,000th major league win and Ty Blach’s first major league save.
While the win will surely be memorable for Buddy, that’s likely only because it is a round number: 1,000. The save will be similarly memorable for Blach as it is also a round number: 1. Blach’s save will also be memorable because of the unique way it was awarded.
