All is quiet at Coors Field here in Denver today, as is the case at all the other major league stadiums across the country, but down in Florida and Arizona, baseball spring training games have begun. Down in Arizona, my South Side heroes, the Chicago White Sox are playing their North Side rivals, the Chicago Cubs, at Sloan Park in Mesa, while my adopted hometown team, the Colorado Rockies, are playing the Arizona Diamondbacks at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick in Scottdale. I am especially interested in that White Sox-Cubs contest. It is possible that neither team will win today, since during the spring extra innings are not played if the game is tied at the end of the 9th. Now THAT would be a sign of things to come. But why be pessimistic? Time to get that bet down on a White Sox-Cubs World Series. Anything is possible in the spring, right? Except probably that, of course.
