The Rockies just pulled off a crazy double play to beat the Cardinals 4-3 and remain in the NL West hunt.
Clint Barmes made a fantastic over-the-shoulder catch with two runners on, then got up and fired to first for the easy double play to end it. Talk about ending a game in style.
The Dodgers are now back to five games up in the West. The magic number is still one, only because they own all tiebreakers over the Rockies.
This might seem a little weird, but I'm glad the Rockies won. There's no way the Dodgers should have celebrated after the way they handed the game away today against a bad team. They need to win Monday afternoon, then pop the bubbly.
A win to end their road trip would be a much better time to celebrate.
