Jake McCarthy comes off bench to swipe fourth base of season

Jake McCarthy pinch-ran for Kyle Karros in the eighth inning, stole a base, and scored the tying run as the Rockies defeated the Blue Jays, 2-1, in 10 innings on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact:

McCarthy did not start for the first time this season, but he made an impact with his legs by stealing his fourth base of the season and scoring the tying run on an RBI single from Troy Johnston. McCarthy stayed in the game, but was pinch-hit for by Tyler Freeman when his turn came up in the top of the tenth. McCarthy is a perfect 4-for-4 in stolen bases, but he is just 2-for-18 at the plate in six contests this season. He's going to need to start hitting to remain in the Rockies' lineup.
