Colorado Rockies, you have disappointed me. You scored 3 runs in the first inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers, but then gave up 4 runs in the seventh. Everything in between was good, and I have to say that Jorge De La Rosa pitched a better game than I was expecting. Once again, the Rockies couldn’t close, but for once it wasn’t Huston Street giving up the big play. The Rockies play the Dodgers again today, so maybe we can get a lead and hold on to it this time.

In better news for Colorado sports, the Colorado Mammoth and Gavin Prout beat the Edmonton Rush 10-9. With this win, the Mammoth scored themselves a playoff spot. This was a back and forth game all the way through, although I was surprised the Mammoth did not win by more. They took 12 more shots on goal than the Rush, but in the end, a win is a win and a playoff berth is nothing to frown at.
