Sweep!


The Rockies have won 21 out of 22 games, including seven straight in the playoffs (only matched by the Big Red Machine in 1976). I am very jealous of my friend Darrin, who got to go to last night's game. The last game he and I went together was the first regular season game at Coors Field, and I'm sure that this one beat that incredible night. (Although it couldn't beat the cold that night - it was 42 degrees at game time)

Go Rockies! The last time a team won this many games at this time of the year was the 1935 Chicago Cubs. Amazing.

Here's a great article about how improbable the Rockies' run has been.
