In baseball, there are three possible “true outcomes” when a batter comes to the plate – three ways his at-bat might unfold without the fielders coming in to play – a walk, a strikeout or a home run.

Here’s how the Rockies weekend unfolded according to those three true outcomes…

Walks: In the three-game sweep of the Dodgers to end the 2015 home schedule, Colorado’s bullpen allowed just three walks – all of which came on Friday night. Colorado relievers did not allow a free pass after the seventh inning on Friday, a 10.1-inning stretch that will extend into Tuesday’s tilt with Arizona. For a team that leads Major League Baseball in walks by team (555) and in relief (235), this was a huge step forward and the most understated key to the series.
