August 25, 2010 - Braves at Rockies

August day games can be very good. Much better than June day games. With good light and a team I've already shot twice, I look for some out-of-the norm stuff. Especially when the home team is down 10-1 in the 3rd inning. It ended up being a pretty special game, though, as the Rockies rallied beginning in the 6th inning to eventually win 12-10 against a strong Braves team.


The ballpark as Todd Helton sees it.


"Long reliever" Manuel Corpas is checked out by "team doctor" Ubaldo Jimenez after a terrible couple of innings. Corpas left the game in the 4th inning after pitching parts of three innings, giving up 3 earned runs, and with the score 10-1 against...



EY2 celebrates the tying run. Awesome afternoon.

The "Rookie Bullpen Guy" for most teams gets to sport a Hello Kitty or Dora or Hannah Montana backpack as they head out to the bullpen before the first pitch. Always pretty funny to see.

Jason Heyward has a pretty weird swing, actually. Whatever works.


Troy Tulowitzki made an aweful baserunning error, and it probably didn't help when Jason Heyward ran by him and offered a little pat on the back.

Rockies took the series opener 5-4. Braves manager Bobby Cox is in his last season, while Rookie of the Year candidate Jason Heyward is in his first.
