In Colorado’s momentum-shifting series victory over the Dodgers at Coors Field this past weekend, the team’s Jekyll-and-Hyde bullpen tuned in mixed results — as it has all season. Thursday’s five home-run disaster — a mark that tied a single-game franchise record for Colorado relievers while leading to a gut-punch loss — was followed by 5 ⅓ combined scoreless innings by the bullpen over the next two games which enabled Ryan McMahon game-winning home runs each night. Harrison Musgrave, Jake McGee, Scott Oberg and Adam Ottavino made up for a less-than-sharp Jon Gray start Friday, and Seunghwan Oh and Bryan Shaw kept the Rockies within striking distance by putting up a pair of zeros Saturday before McMahon’s walk-off home run. Then Sunday, leading up to Chris Iannetta’s walk-off walk to seal the series, the bullpen’s performance fell somewhere in the middle.
