Twi-lights: It just continues, Story stays sizzling

 

The Colorado Rockies won the rubber match of their opening series in Arizona by the score of 4-3. Rookie Trevor Story hit his fourth home run in his third MLB game and DJ LeMahieu knocked a solo shot. The two-run first inning shot by Story propelled the offense which was backed up nicely by a stout pitching performance from Tyler Chatwood in his 2016 debut.

When it comes to Trevor Story puns, we've all lost the plot

Not a great inning for the #Rockies, defensively

— Ryan Edwards (@redwardsradio) April 6, 2016

Pitching not the problem that inning. Gotta make those plays in the field.

Someone help out the #Rockies announcers, it isn't that hard to figure out who is making a play in the infield.

Somewhere, Jim Tracy is saying Weiss should calm down with the double switching.

— Chris Chrisman (@chrischrisman) April 6, 2016

Totally fine with how that was handled. Don't make a mistake with a fastball, see if you can get him out of the zone, if not, no harm

— Dan Lucero (@danluceroshow) April 6, 2016

Beautifully done. We savaged Weiss On Here last night – the man is due a tip of the cap, as are Castro/Logan, for that inning.

— Dan Lucero (@danluceroshow) April 6, 2016

The process and results in terms of bullpen management that inning were great.
