VIDEO: Raimel Tapia Crushes a Grand Slam as Rockies Take Commanding Lead Over Brewers
By Karl Rasmussen
The Milwaukee Brewers have clinched a postseason berth, but they're still within reach of the Cardinals for the division lead. Well, their NL Centra title chances took a big blow when Rockies speedster Raimel Tapia launched a grand slam into the seats at Coors Field, giving Colorado an 8-2 lead.
Rockies fans won't be the only ones celebrating this one, as Cardinals fans will surely be excited to see the Brew Crew dropping a game on Friday night, with only two games left to play in the season.
Tapia cleared the bases and effectively put the game out of reach, barring an epic meltdown from the Rockies bullpen. Now, the Brewers have their backs against the wall in their push for the division title.
