How About Them Rockies
Despite being swept by the clearly better Boston Red Socks in the World Series, I'm proud of the Rockies and their dramatic win streaks to get to the playoffs and the sweeps of their opponents for the NL pennant. Our bats went pretty silent in the World Series, probably because Boston's pitching was really good.
Wait 'til next year, as the Cubs fans always say.

Rare Sports Post, in Spirit
The triumphant Rockies were swept in turn by the just short of mighty Blue Jays, the only team in MLB not in the United States. I guess the on the road Rockies are a slightly different team. Let's see if they can bounce back against the perennial doormats of the National League Central Division (except recently), the Cubbies.
The Blue Jay's pitcher, Dustin McGowan, had a no-hitter going into the 9th. He had to settle for a one hit shut out. Nice, but not a no-hitter.
