Rockies’ bullpen suffers epic, controversial meltdown in 11-9 loss to Dodgers

It was a meltdown for the ages. Spiced with controversy and fury. The Rockies were one strike away from pulling out a 9-8 victory over the Dodgers on Tuesday night at Coors Field. And the Rockies were 100% certain they got the strike three they needed on Victor Vodnik’s 99.8 mph fastball to Teoscar Hernandez. Instead, the Rockies lost 11-9, as the Dodgers erupted for seven runs in the ninth, topped off by Hernandez’s three-run homer one pitch later. Hernandez checked his swing on Vodnik’s two-strike pitch and the Rockies appealed to first-base umpire Lance Barksdale, positive Hernandez had swung to end the game.
