Cespedes just had another one of those misplayed doubles that he turned into an outfield assist. Gunned the runner down advancing to 3rd by a few steps. There would have to be a lot of great plays tonight for that to not be in the SCTop10
The Rockies starter just set the Rockies record (4) for most wild pitches in a game. Did it before the end of the 3rd inning. 3 was the previous record. He threw 3 wild pitches in the 2nd inning alone, in a span of 10 pitches.
In a place as unforgiving to pitchers as Denver, that's just rough. Mets had runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs to start that 2nd inning. The following 2 pitches advanced and scored both of them.
Chicago is the first team to face the reigning World Series MVP (Madison Bumgarner) and league MVP (Clayton Kershaw) in back-to-back games since 1969. (via Elias)
Aaron Altherr hit an inside-the-park grand slam in the third, then topped it off with solo shot in the fifth as the Phillies lead the Nats 6-2. According to Elias, the last player to hit both in one game was Bob Brower on June 21, 1987.
