Colorado Rockies Fall to Dodgers Comeback
Apr 18th
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.

Denver Nuggets Face Chris Paul and the Hornets
Apr 18th
The Denver Nuggets are now preparing for their first round playoff series against the New Orleans Hornets. I think this is going to be a great series to watch, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it goes back and forth. Chris Paul is one of the most dangerous players in the game, and if he gets hot the Hornets will be hard to stop.

I expect to see some big performances out of Chauncey Billups, Nene Hilario, Chris “Birdman” Andersen, and Kenyon Martin during this series. They will have to step up big time defensively. The regular season match-ups were split, with 2 wins each for the Nuggets and Hornets. Hopefully the Nuggets will finally be able to get out of the first round without Dikembe Mutumbo.

The Colorado Rockies are playing Manny Ramirez and the Los Angeles Dodgers tonight. The Rockies are 4-4 and have not looked great, but are coming off a nice 5-2 win over the Chicago Cubs. If the Rockies want to have a chance against the Dodgers they will need some improved pitching. Jorge De La Rosa had a terrible opening game against the Philadelphia Phillies, giving up 5 runs in 4 innings. Huston Street will also have to learn how to close a game if the Rockies want to pull this one off.
