Unassisted Triple Play

[Danielh41]

The play was over in a flash, and it took me a couple of seconds for me to process what I had just seen. Tulowitzki had turned an unassisted triple play in the seventh inning, catching Chipper Jones's line drive for one out, stepping on second to double off the runner there, and tagging the runner coming from first.

Unassisted triple plays are probably the rarest play in baseball. Troy's was only the 13th in MLB history. Just for fun, I got on Wikipedia.org and looked up unassisted triple plays. The page had already been updated with Tulowitzki's before the Rockies-Braves game was even finished.

But the best part was that the Rockies actually won the game...

I have to give up to the Rockies, they played well the whole series and put on a show. It was great to see the triple play.

But after watching the series, I have to ask the Braves what's wrong with Bob Wickman? He looked very uncomfortable out there, and of course, his pitching was lacking...

Todd Helton had 5 walks in the same game... I have never seen that in the box scores before then... :applaud: :crazy

Is Troy Tulowitzki untouchable? This guy is going to be something special?

IMO, just until he becomes a FA........ With the Monfort brothers as owners, no one is untouchable.
