I went to see the Colorado Rockies play the Chicago Cubs at Coors Field last night. It was a contest between two of the worst teams in baseball, and it appeared that neither team wanted to win the game. The Rockies walked 6 men during the 7th inning and in the process walked in two runs. The manager, Walt Weiss, went through four pitchers during the inning before he could find one who could throw strikes. On the bright side, it was Cap Night. It reminded me of that cartoon in the Denver Post a few weeks ago where the baseball team's promotion department made a mistake and had "Cat Night" - free cats to the first 10,000 fans - instead of Cap Night." I think Cat Night would have really helped to liven up the proceedings yesterday. The game dragged on until the bottom of the 12th inning, by the way, with the Cubs finally winning the game 6 to 5.
