i look forward to a defensive circus with cook on the mound. Not to mention automatic doubles since Manuel will steal every time someone reaches first. Kind of negates Cook’s ground ball double play advantage.

This is Cole Hamels pitching… And I think he’s a left, and I think Ianetta has a .900+ OPS against lefties, and a .292 average… And Yorvit doesn’t.

thanks. i needed that.

just watched it 4 times. i get a boot out of the ump trying to look through the group of players to see if home plate is touched. they should change the rule that any out of the park homerun automatically scores all runners on base as well as the batter – of course, we still want to see the home run trot, or in spilly case, sprint.

May the Rockies bring me to paydirt!

Also, i dunno if anyone caught ESPN’s preview to game 2 today…but the report said the pressure is on the Phillies, not the Rockies. Makes sense… “This is a streaky team – if they win game 2 the momentum plus being back home, the series might not come back to Philadelphia”

we can only hope, right? :D

what kind of rockies fans do we have that they miss playoff games because of labs and

classes? this is quite strange to me, but i grew up on the east coast and am a former diehard fan. teachers and professors pretty much would give everyone a pass if there was a sox day playoff game. hell, i played hookie every opening day with mom’s permission. come on rockies fans, we’re not the yankees, it isn’t a given that we make the playoffs every year.

Oh, believe me, I skipped class yesterday to watch the game.

Unfortunately, labs are different. Missing a lab more or less equals sacrificing a good chunk of your grade in the class.

No passes from teachers this year either. They somehow fail to grasp the importance of playoff baseball.

Now I feel much better.

Glad I did NOT see J. Kruk throw out the first pitch.

I really hope we show more discipline at the plate today.

We didn’t even see the Phillies’ bullpen yesterday, and that’s their biggest weakness.

Take pitches and protect the plate please, Rox.

Or, alternatively, bludgeon Hamels for 7 runs in the first and chase him out of there early.
