I went to see the Colorado Rockies play the Los Angeles Dodgers with my friend Mark (seen in the photo on the left) Wednesday night at Coors Field. As regular Blog readers will recall, Mark works at the University of Denver's Anderson Academic Commons (known as the library back on earth). Mark is a tremendous soccer fan, and was very excited about the start of the English soccer season - so much so that all the talk Wednesday evening was about Great Britain and soccer, as opposed to baseball. UK soccer begins today, by the way.
As for the baseball game, the Rockies beat the Dodgers 12 to 2, which is saying something, considering the Dodgers are only a few games out of first place. I must say, their pitchers did not look very good. When the starting pitcher started getting shelled, they brought in the fellow seen warming up in the photograph on the right, and he wound up getting shelled, too. Break up the Rockies! Can a World Series appearance be far behind?
