You can win in Colorado.
19 years ago today, we played Game 163.
Two weeks before that, the Rockies were buried in the standings.
We won 13 of our last 14 regular season games to force it. Won it on a play at the plate in extra innings that people still argue about.
Then swept the Phillies in the NLDS. Swept the Diamondbacks in the NLCS. Went to the World Series.
By the time we got there, we'd won 21 of our last 22 games.
Nobody in Colorado would have written that story before the season started. Me included.
But there were fingerprints all over it...ownership, the front office, the players, the coaches. Nobody cared who got the credit.
We just kept not going away.
Man can't write what sport can create.

One of the greatest scores ever.
Daft Punk spent nearly two years crafting the score for TRON: LEGACY (2010).
Working alongside an 85-piece orchestra, they fused electronic music with classical arrangements to give the Grid a timeless, operatic sound. teapaw.org/FreddsCorner/status/16…
