Rockies Game


Last night I went down to Denver with a group of friends to see a Rockies-Diamondbacks game. It was fun, but a long way to go to see a team that is 2-9 play a team that is 6-6. We did get to see a Coors Field home run. Troy Glaus hit a line drive to centerfield that just kept carrying and carrying and carrying and cleared the fence. Any other stadium it would have been an out or a double at the most. The Rockies lost, but it was an entertaining game. We bought tickets for $5 from a scalper and then sat at field level right next to the rightfield foul pole. Two of my buddies are Dodgers fans and they spent a good amount of time heckling Shawn Green when he was in the field. I guess it's not really heckling when you are telling someone that they are really good, but there was lots of yelling involved. He never acknowledged us even though we were only about 75 feet away from him.
