Strange Double

With the Rockies leading 5-4 in the bottom of the eleventh, Hunter Pence legs out the strangest double I've ever seen. With Biggio on first after his fifth hit of the game (3002 for this career), Pence hits a medium roller up the middle. Fuentes, the pitcher, reaches down to grab it, but it rolls under this glove. The second baseman and shortstop are confused by this, and each think the other one is going for the ball as it rolls by both into the outfield. Meanwhile, Pence is running hard all the way and reaches second for a double.

After a hit batter, Carlos Lee hits a high pop up that lands over the leftfield wall for a walk off grand slam. All this with two outs. An amazing finish and a nice end to Biggio's milestone game.
