Rockies 3, Tigers 1: Rockies win a series!

More good news

Greg Smith threw five innings of one-hit shutout ball in AAA today.

That's awesome

12 innings, 0 runs, 2 hits by Sky Sox starters the last two nights…neither of which were the ones promoted

What happened in the game:

Jason Hammel pitched well and kept the Tigers lineup off balance all day. My lucky Iannetta shirt worked again even though CDI wasn’t playing. Dexter Fowler got on base a few times. Todd Helton came up with two clutch hits, Matt Murton came up with one, and Embree/Corpas/Street finally worked like it was supposed to all season.

Yes, I mean Flores.

It’s so easy to get them confused.

No it's not

Embree has more facial hair.

that last part was sarcastic, btw

My brain is still unwinding from the long drive home today.

You got to see the Rockies win

Congratulations to you and I hope you had fun.

And then

you can get inside interviews for us here. Sounds like a good idea to me.

I just noticed

that Hammel has the lowest ERA of any Rockies starter…

Though he has a nasty Home/Road split of 7.63/1.69

Maybe we should just start him on the road. And in day games (0.68)

That's not nasty,

that’s utterly and wholly crazy.

DLR in a similar boat

if you don’t count the last time he took the mound (a.k.a. the Postage Stamp Strike Zone BB Meltdown), he would have an exceptionally low era as well, which is why i cant wait for him to pick apart the dodgers tomorrow

if you're reading this, it means my undying support for your team will result in its failure.

The home game

ERA should be lower, with the exception of a few errors. I know some of the runs scored were unearned but the earned runs in those games didn’t help him much.
