It’s been a flashback to 2018 at Coors Field this weekend. A historic walk-off grand slam by Charlie Blackmon on Friday night. Extra-inning shenanigans on Saturday night. And Kyle Freeland continued his return to form and make believers out of the doubters. However, you know it’s 2020 by the final score: Angels 5, Rockies 2. The game reached its apex…
With their season hanging in the balance, the Colorado Rockies traversed an entire mountain range – ascent, descent and back to its peak – to win 8-4 against the Los Angeles Angels on Friday night thanks to a walk-off grand slam by Charlie Blackmon.

Ringolsby then compares the Rockies young pitching staff to the 1990’s Atlanta Braves as the conversation turns to a remarkable run that the starters have…...
