I'm with you. Baseball is just a beautiful game, no matter who is playing. I think both the Padres and Rockies should be commended for giving it their all last night. Not every game is a decisive blow, nor a pitcher's dual. Anything truly can happen. Besides, I love watching mid-market teams generate that level of intensity and excitement. Anyone who wouldn't trade the Sox offense of this season for what the Rockies have clearly hasn't been paying attention. Do the Rockies anyone BESIDES Jamey Carroll hitting under .285? GEEZ!!

padres with 89 wins sadly trumps the sox this year.

 

and i don't know if it was a bad call. watch barretts foot lift and slide

back with hollidays hand.  and rockies were likely robbed of a homerun

earlier.  but none of it matters!  that's the beauty of it.

i didn't really care who won, but the intensity of the game was great.

the excitement was a one game play-off takes all.  a whole

season, done or extended in 9 (or 13) innings.

 

of course, through the year, i have gone to little league, high school and

college baseball games and womens fast pitch softball games.

 

because i love baseball.  !
