One day after the Colorado Rockies ended their season by tying the worst 14-game stretch in club history.

The Colorado Rockies easily could have spent this whole week making up scenarios that most likely weren’t going to happen.

On Monday night…...

The lesson was nothing new for the Rockies. Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum are very tough to hit.

Maybe Barack Obama should focus on shutting down Chase Field instead of Guantanamo Bay.

The Colorado Rockies suffered a huge setback to their playoff dreams on Tuesday night in Arizona.

The good news is, Matt Kemp still can’t hit a slider off of the plate.With the tying run at first base and Huston Street in trouble, catcher Miguel Olivo wisely called a slider away on a 2-2 count. Kemp waved at it and the Rockies had won the all-important first game of the three game series with the Dodgers 7-5.The…...
