Offense heats up for Cook and the Rockies in 7-3 win over Giants

Mmm... there's nothing like the smell of victory coming from the kitchen. And what's this, do I sense a pleasant wisp of tacos on the air as well? I do!  Oh.., oh.., and what else is that, it's so intoxicating, like as if you were able to smell the tears of so many San Franciscans longing for something they simply are incapable of having. Ever. Whatever it is, it smells delicious, and I wouldn't mind experiencing it again all weekend.

Aaron Cook pitched into the seventh, allowing three runs but was generally effective in picking up his third win. Carlos Gonzalez started the offense with a two run blast, his thirteenth home run of the season, and scored twice, and Dexter Fowler proved to be a lead-off spark with three hits, including a triple, two stolen bases and two runs scored. Miguel Olivo and Clint Barmes each contributed the type of clutch hitting they've been getting good at thus far this season with two hits apiece and a combined three runs and two RBI,  and Jason Giambi added a pinch hit exclamation mark to the evening by driving in the Rockies last run.

With the seven to three win, the Rockies are now:


42 - 37

4.5

Won 1

83


With the win and the Padres currently losing, the Rockies appear to be moving back to within four games of San Diego in the NL West and are now within two games of the NL Wild Card spot. The Giants, meanwhile have lost six straight and have fallen a game and a half behind the Rockies in the division.

Other news around the division: Arizona has shaken up it's front office and bench management this evening as both the general manager Josh Byrnes and field manager A.J. Hinch are being let go, and the Orioles have called up third base prospect Josh Bell, who the Dodgers traded for George Sherrill last summer. Quick WAR comparison with their most recent clubs of Rafael Betancourt (who cost the Rockies Connor Graham last summer) and Sherrill:

  • Betancourt: 1.6
  • Sherrill: 0.0

I do that because it's fun to laugh at the Dodgers when they mess up.

Why

We are losing to the padres more then the giants right now besides the giants only should have a rivalry with the dodgers which I also kinda really dislike.

Yeah, my advice was to acquire him before 2009, if I had thought it out, my fallback advice should have been to bribe a Japanese team to offer a lucrative contract or otherwise figure out a way to make him disappear.

For some reason I think the padres got a very easy schedule this year. They faced baltimore for an AL series. They just seem to have the right schedule to keep them hot and to burn teams while they are down. not a fan of them right now.

Is what purpose does that solar powered board really serve? Does it truely enhance a benefit to mankind? And if it does not, then isn’t it logical that all it is is a conversion of energy that ultimately results in energy losses that ultimately produce heat.

From Gaslamp Ball
"I was coming down the [dugout] stairs maybe a little too fast and hit my head on top of the concrete," Hundley said. "The next thing I know, I’m laying by the trash can."



So where was Hundley headed in such a hurry Wednesday when he bumped his head?

"I was running to use the bathroom because [pitcher Clayton Richard] gets out there [to the mound] so fast," Hundley said. "It’s more embarrassing than anything."

On Thursday, that area was padded, presumably to make sure such an incident wouldn’t happen again.

but it’s the kind of chuckle you get when your friend tells you their chihuahua died because they ran head-on into the sprinkler in the yard… you feel like an a$$hole for laughing

I'm actually not into chihuahuas

the point was more that you laugh out of shock or reflex or something, then feel like a jerk

Argh.

I was wondering the same thing earlier.

Really annoying, especially being on the West Coast and having a long commute. I’m constantly watching games behind everyone else.

by holly96 on Jul 1, 2010 11:49 PM MDT up reply actions  

I know that feeling

he east coast is honestly just as bad. I wish I could reverse it though go to school on the east coast and finish my homework before the Rockies play and work on the west coast to go home early before the game starts probably would be just as frustrated though

The secret to the law of attraction

It seems that the Rockies have been doing better in the recent seasons than in previous seasons. So, how come everytime I go to a game, the seats are empty except when the redsoxs come to town and the seats are then being filled by the redsoxs fans. What is the magical ingredient for fans to buy rockies tickets ?
