Alex Dickerson comes up big in extra innings win over Rockies

Coors Field does not suffer fools. Yesterday, the Giants swept a doubleheader, scoring 19 in the first game and winning 2-1 in the second. You can’t defy Coors Field like that. You might be able to get away with holding the Rockies down for a couple of games, but the bill always comes due. And tonight it did. Extremely.

Will Smith had allowed just three home runs this season — and just six in two and a half seasons with the Giants — before giving up two in the bottom of the ninth.
