Kimbrel Blows Hudson's Potential 200th Win
From Elias: Coors Field remained a house of horrors for Tim Hudson, who watched Craig Kimbrel blow a two-run lead in the ninth inning, costing Hudson his 200th career victory. The Rockies won the game, 6-5 in 12 innings. Hudson has an 0-2 career record with a 7.41 ERA in six starts at Coors Field. Last season, Kimbrel pitched in 63 games for Atlanta and became only the fifth pitcher in modern major-league history to make 60 or more appearances in one season and not be charged with more than one run in any of them.
