The San Francisco Giants were on the wrong end of some bad luck Friday against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field in Denver, Colo.
The Giants led 3-0 with one out in the top of the fourth inning. Brett Wisely came up to the plate with runners on first and second against Rockies starting pitcher Cal Quantrill.
Wisely scorched an 87-mph cutter down the right field line. A batted ball like his would usually yield at least a double.
Instead, the ball struck the first base bag, ricocheted off first base umpire Chris Conroy,and fell right into the glove of first baseman Michael Toglia. The Rockies infielder beat Wisely to the bag to get the out.
