Tampa Bay Rays 11, Colorado Rockies 3: Rockies struggle in all facets of the game in loss to Rays
DENVER — For a fleeting moment, the Rockies held a 2-1 lead over Chris Archer and the Rays, but over the course of two disastrous innings it all unraveled and the Rockies dropped the game, 11-3, as well as the series.

Celebrate my 5-year work anniversary at PS Audio this November – luckily, have shared 4 of those summers at Coors Field watching our local Colorado Rockies play ball. UGH-lee finish today…guess there’s always next year 🙂
Sunshine & summer, hot dogs & over-priced nachos – LOVE LOVE this time of year. Thanks work family!

Hotel stayed in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor – GREAT location. Day’s first stop, the National Aquarium. HUGE building hugging the Chesapeake Bay – 5 levels of wonder. Black tip reef to Shark Alley, well done. Time constrained, unfortunately had to cut out early – still needed to fit in lunch & bib pick-up downtown.
Long jot down Pratt, opted to walk by Yankee great Babe Ruth’s Birthplace Museum before righting myself toward the city’s two premier sports stadiums, Camden Yards & Ravens M&T Bank Stadium.
Much of downtown Baltimore is uniquely designed in the region’s locally harvested red brick – including tomorrow’s mile 25 paver path to the Finish. Welcomed BIG at Camden Yards: “This Land is Birdland”. Tomorrow’s marathon wraps Orioles Stadium – finishing down pedestrian Eutaw Street, connecting Camden Yards to the city’s NFL home.
Snapped a pic of the marathon ‘Finish Line’ – classy, Baltimore.
WOW whatta day – whole lotta, whole lotta before a 26.2. To anyone who thinks of Baltimore only as the city jungle portrayed during last year’s riots – think again. Much to see & do!
Early start tomorrow a.m. [MARATHON DAY] then hitting the highway – dinner plans with Aunt & my Virginia-based cousins (2 hours away in Martinsburg WV). Livin’ life with no regrets – FAAANNTASTIC!

Rockies use 5-run 8th for 6-4 victory over Diamondbacks
DENVER — On a day when he got a break from his job as the Colorado Rockies starting shortstop, Troy Tulowitzki stepped into a starring role of a different sort. Tulowitzki started a five-run eighth inning with his first career pinch-hit home run, and the Rockies rallied to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-4 Thursday.

third time in 4 years, our company outing included a Rockies day game – must be summer (thanks PS Audio!)
- 2nd consecutive year the home team has been in the NL West cellar (5th of 5 teams)
- 2nd consecutive year the home team trailed late, hit multiple homers & squeaked out the victory
telling ya: I just might be the Rockies’ good luck charm – 4 wins in a row. MAGIC 🙂
