Colorado\u2019s Charlie Blackmon became the first player since at least 1900 with 15 hits in a four-game series, according to STATS. Adding to the zaniness: the finale was delayed once to clean up a big puddle in foul territory despite sunny skies, and again later because of weather.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cThat\u2019s the great thing about baseball \u2014 you see things you\u2019ve never seen before,\u201d Rockies infielder Ryan McMahon said. \u201cIt didn\u2019t bounce our way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Trailing 13-10 in the ninth, Wil Myers had an RBI single and Greg Garcia promptly tied it with a two-out, two-run triple off closer Wade Davis (1-2). The Rockies brought in starter Jon Gray, who intentionally walked two batters to face Strahm after the Padres used up all their position players. Gray fell behind 3-1 before throwing a strike. Strahm watched a 98-mph fastball narrowly miss for ball four.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cThe 3-2 was down, and I know I can\u2019t handle that with his velocity,\u201d Strahm said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Rockies manager Bud Black said he went with Gray \u2014 the starter Thursday \u2014 because of his usual ability to throw strikes. Plus, the Rockies had some relievers who weren\u2019t available given their work load.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Gerardo Reyes (3-0) earned the win by striking out three in the eighth. Kirby Yates threw a perfect ninth for his 24th save.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Hunter Renfroe homered twice for San Diego, and Fernando Tatis Jr. had three hits, including a double and a triple.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">All told, the four games took more than 16 hours to complete.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cI can\u2019t really explain some of the things that went on and honestly I\u2019m just happy to get out of here for a split, for sure,\u201d Garcia said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Padres raced out to a 3-0 lead before a giant puddle suddenly formed along the right field line due to an issue with the irrigation line. The grounds crew rolled the water away as the teams waited in the dugout during the 15-minute holdup.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">In the bottom of the inning, Colorado responded with six runs. Blackmon led the way with two hits in the inning, including a solo homer to lead off.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The game was again halted in the sixth as weather moved into the area. The delay lasted 48 minutes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Once the tarp was lifted, the Rockies quickly went to work by scoring three runs to make it 13-8. Ian Desmond, Ryan McMahon and Raimel Tapia had three straight doubles to start the frame. The trio went a combined 9 for 15 with six RBIs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Blackmon remained red hot with three more hits. He\u2019s reached base safely in all 26 of his home games this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cOur whole lineup swung the bat good.
