Welcome back Brad.


Well that's more like it.
Rockies mounting a mind-boggling comeback against a team that could be reasonably be called "hot".
Fuentes shutting any afterthoughts down.
Super-encouraging.
.
Weird and not totally unrelated...i'm out drinking a glass of wine watering my tiny front yard at ~11:00, roughly one-half hour ago. 4 drunken gals (obviously recently disembarked from the 38 bus) came rambling down Julian all pumped about the victory. Pretty cool. After an acknowledgment of mutual joy based on the evening's victory, they invited me down to 3 Dogs for beers.
Doubtful that Sammy is a valid baby & house sitter to afford me some odd trip down to the local tavern to revel with these surprising Rockie/chick fans deadset on tearing up the Highlands.
.
Back to the Rockies' performance/win. I feel like at the very least, respectability may come for this team when the envisioned 2008 lineup takes the field together...make no mistake, from where I sit this team has no chance of sniffing the postseason, but winning games, one at a time (with drama no less!) still makes for a much better summer.

TD was at Coors for that win. Hands down, the best win of the year so far. Mind-boggling is a great way to describe the 5-run explosion. Wasn't expecting that. I really like the cut of this Mota guy's job.

Stay on the line, I want to get those girl's number.

And mad props going out to Foster Fox, the cool little helper dog seated in front our row in the 331, who alerts her diabetic owner when her blood sugar levels are wrong. I like to think Foster Fox, along with the "Everybody Clap Your Hands" chant, fueled this come back.

yeah...i bet it was a good game to be at.
what about tonight's game? DT?

Don't have the super-gallego tickies, but alison and I are going to try and do a little rock-pile slide this evening. And we'll be getting our Tulo bobblehead on as well.

Shall I give you a call?
