I’m not claiming to be much of a baseball fan but someone’s got to win the World Series and the Colorado Rockies are making an epic run. They’ve reeled off 20 wins in 21 games and people in this football stronghold are going nuts for baseball. I’ve been in town chilling before I head back to Vegas for the Poker Bowl (more details to come) and I have to say, it’s huge that the Rockies are even in the playoffs, much less World Series contenders. For as long as I can remember, the Rockies have been rock bottom.

 

I was lucky enough to attend one of the do-or-die games right before the playoffs. The atmosphere was incredible; definitely the most exciting baseball I’ve ever watched.

One of my friends is a die hard Rockies fan and he rallied the troops to go out last night to watch the “Blake St. Bombers” sweep the Diamondbacks. They did just that and we made it into the paper. This photo was uploaded to the Rocky Mountain News last night right as the Rockies went up huge in the fourth inning. Good times!
