Rockies nearly lose after fan interference call takes away walk-off home run

The Colorado Rockies won the first game of their Sunday doubleheader with the Seattle Mariners, 2–1, in 10 innings. But the game probably should have ended an inning earlier if not for a fan interference call that took away a walk-off home run.

With the game tied 0–0 in the bottom of the ninth, Rockies catcher Jacob Stallings hit a fastball from Mariners reliever Ryne Stanek deep to left field. Seattle left fielder Dylan Moore tracked the ball to the wall and looked ready to possibly make a home run-robbing catch.
