A stadium known more for home runs was the site of the first walk-off pitch clock violation in MLB history.
Nationals closer Kyle Finnegan was cited for taking too long to throw a pitch with a full count and the bases loaded in the ninth inning Saturday night, resulting in a walk by Ryan McMahon to force in the tiebreaking run to give the Rockies an 8-7 win at Coors Field in Denver.
“Kyle has had some trouble lately with the clock,” Nationals manager Dave Martinez said. “It hadn’t really cost him to that point, but it’s something that we’ve kind of felt like might come back to haunt him at some point. He could have stepped off, but it’s a tough situation.
