Once again the Rockies were felled by Friday, getting shutout by the Pirates 3-0. This brings their 2011 Friday record to 1-4, while the other 6 days has them 15-4, with no more than 1 loss on any other day. They are still a perfect 6-0 on Wednesdays and Thursdays--two days they didn't play this week.
Alfredo Amezaga a 33 Year old journeyman made a successful return to the Rockies Friday night. A defensive replacement for Seth Smith in a double switch, Amezaga grounded a single to right in the 8th inning, and made it to second on a passed ball. Amezaga last played for the Rockies in two games in 2005, and has 1332 Career At Bats mostly with Anaheim and Florida. He wore number 99 last night previously worn by Turk Wendell in 2004.
