With their death-defying 22-inning goose egg-a-thon prohibiting them from arriving in Texas until 7:20 a.m., the Rockies have started a makeshift lineup including bench players Scott Podsednik, Ryan Spilborghs, Jeff Baker, and Chris Iannetta. Iron men who played the whole game last night and started today: Troy Tulowitzki (obviously), Clint Barmes, Willy Taveras, and Garrett Atkins.

Even with the whole bench playing and the Rockies exhausted from travel... Colorado scored six runs in the top of the first inning.
