Going to Eleven
In the top of the eleventh, the Rockies load the bases with two out, alternating getting on base and making an out. Taveras was scheduled to make an out, but he walked instead and the Rockies lead 3-2 going to the bottom of the eleventh.
Update: Owings is pinch hitting with one out in the bottom of the eleventh.
Update: He flies out. One more out and the Rockies have a commanding lead.
Update: Young strikes out to end the game. The DBacks now need to pull off the rare comeback from losing the first two games at home.
The yankees did it in the 1996(?) WS. They lost the first 2 games at home to Atlanta, then won the next 4 to win the series.
Maybe the announcers were talking specifically about the NLCS?
Right, and the Mets did it in 1986 as well.
