The winning rally came off reliever John Wetteland, who has blown four saves in six opportunities at Coors Field and saw the end of his club-record streak of 13 consecutive appearances with a save. Wetteland walked Jeff Cirillo to start the 12th after Ivan Rodriguez had given the Rangers the lead. Todd Helton followed with a single past third base. The runners each advanced an extra base when Rusty Greer bobbled the ball. The Rangers intentionally walked the bases full.
Timing is everything.
It was a very bad time to have a lead-off walk. The first pitch was up, and I overadjusted. And after that, it was like a crapshoot. Since the Rangers started coming to Coors Field in 1997, they are 3-3. All three losses have come on the game's final at-bat.
