Catching Another Rockies Game With Mark



I went to the Colorado Rockies - Miami Marlins baseball game with my friend Mark (seen in the above photo) this past Friday night, and the Rockies actually won.  Of course, the Marlins are the worst team in the National League, but a win is a win, right? The Rockies are 11 games under .500 and solidly in last place, but the sports announcers still think there is a chance they can turn things around and make the playoffs.  The Chicago White Sox, on the other hand, are 12 games under .500 and fans only hope the team can reach that highly valued .500 mark.  If nothing, White Sox fans are realists. In any case, Mark is just back from the UK, where he visited with friends in both Bath and Leeds, and caught several soccer and cricket matches - surprise! And one more word about the Colorado Rockies - it wasn't until the middle of the game that I realized that they were no longer playing loud, incredibly horrible snippets of heavy metal, rap, and techno dance songs between every pitch at Coors Field, making it impossible to talk to the person next to you. Fans must have been complaining. Or else maybe the Colorado Rockies Organization is reading this blog.  Yeah, that must be it.
