Evidently
They sell a Chipper Jones wine down here.
No word on whether or not the stockboy pulled a hamstring while shelving the bottles.

Leadoff triple.
Just the way to start.

Reyes
using the oxygen tank early on after the Mets get the quick lead.

Is Barmes back up?
This Baker/Barmes thing is a conundrum.

Jeff Baker
didn’t get picked off. The pickoff throw got Jeff Baker.

I hope
the board is dead because everyone is at the game. Last Rockies home game I watched was embarrassing to see the stands.

Jimenez got a hit!
His first of the season. Hell just froze over.

I don't know.
It’s not as if the Rockies had the bases loaded each inning and failed to put a man across home plate.

Atkins
Win.

Thank you Atkins
That was a long time in coming.
We are all dead.

2-1
Back-to-back first -pitch HRs from Atkins and Hawpe. Which means Tulo will swing at the first one, too.
We are all dead.

He ripped one last night
that Chavez robbed him of, and one just as hard, but right at Wright. He’s got a long, long way to go, but I see signs of progress.

Jeff Baker
is a god walking amongst mere mortals. He has a voice that could make a wolverine purr and suits so fine they made Sinatra look like a hobo.
Come on guys…. Hop aboard the bandwagon.

Hey everybody..
The game started an hour early than I expected. Good thing I didn’t miss this inning.

Jeff Baker's chin is so strong..
It could knock out Kimbo Slice.

Is it just me
or is this inning going unbelievably well. I mean, Ubaldo, Taveras, and Tulo all got hits. That’s inconceivable the way things had been going this year.

INCONCEIVABLE!
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Why is Helton batting cleanup? Wait, I know the answer. Because your manager is Clint Hurdle.

I have to say
That was probably the best inning of baseball (top and bottom) that the Rox have played all year.

U-ball
showing the potential we always knew was there. Also hitting, for some reason.

Jeff Baker doesn't take batting practice..
He takes moonshot practice. The upper deck shudders everytime Jeff Baker swings the bat.

And the scorekeeper put 6 runs on the board for Minnesota.

The dead-ball era was named...
after every one of Jeff Baker’s at-bats. Because he kills the ball when he hits it. He literally kills it.

Anything witty
is eluding me tonight. A week teaching at circus camp and two hours working on the aerial fabric (think cirque du soleil aerial kind of stuff, expect in two minute bytes – I’m working on a piece) and I am EXHAUSTED. I’m just happy the Rox are winning, because I don’t have the energy to deal with exciting/stressful games.
