Comment on Charlie Blackmon triples and doubles, but Cardinals cruise past Rockies

Charlie Blackmon triples and doubles, but Cardinals cruise past Rockies

On cue, that old Blackmon magic showed up Tuesday night at Coors Field, but the Rockies’ chances of beating the Cardinals disappeared with the return of late-inning pratfalls. St. Louis scored a run in the seventh and four more in the eighth to turn a tight game into a 7-3 cruiser. A day after announcing his retirement, 14-year veteran Charlie Blackmon swung his magic wand and gave the Rockies a short-lived 3-2 lead in the fifth with an RBI triple into the right-center gap. Blackmon is 38, but he still has the wheels of a much younger player, and he burned up the basepath on his way to third.
