Update: Congratulations, Jestacy! You have won two tickets to see the Rockies today. Check your email for details on how to claim them. Original post: Despite the incessant weather changes, summer is... More »
Hope springs eternal in baseball: Every year on opening day, you can hit the reset button and tell yourself that this is the year that your team will win it all. The equinox is meaningless to baseball fans; spring will arrive with today’s first... More »
The Colorado Rockies stink, but that doesn’t mean baseball fans can’t take in a ballgame (and watch a good team play). The Los Angeles Dodgers come to down for a three-game stand starting tonight at 6:40 p.m., and boys in blue are right in the... More »
As the weather heats up, Colorado Rockies baseball games will get more intense, and the beginning of this season's interleague play should only help. The team will face their first American League opponents, the Seattle Mariners, tonight as part... More »
The best reason to have Jamie Moyer in the Colorado Rockies clubhouse is that he's a good pitcher with the team's best earned-run average. The second best reason is that it means the Rockies hitters d... More »
Old athletes are still young by everyday life standards -- except for Jamie Moyer. The left-handed veteran (who got his first start against Steve Carlton) is attempting to make a comeback and to make the Rockies roster after missing last year recovering from Tommy John surgery. And after a slow start, he's now competing for the fifth starter position -- complete with his wicked 67 mph pitches. Just that, and the fact that he made it to spring training, is commendable. No word on... More »
It's hard to beat Rocky. The Nuggets' mountain-lion mascot is still knocking down over-the-head-backwards half-court shots and throwing down trampoline dunks, still amusing opposing coaches, still flirting with buxom ladies in the stands. And until some other furry-costume-wearing wannabe knocks him off the throne, Rocky is king of the town.Readers' Choice: Rocky More »
It's about to get all baseball nerdy up in here: In 2011, star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki posted the second-best WAR of his career. The obscure stat -- also known as Wins Above Replacement -- measures the amount of wins a player is worth to his team. In fact, according to this stat, Tulo was more than twice as valuable as any other member of the Rockies. So, thanks, baseball geeks, and thanks for not mentioning his hair.Readers' Choice: Troy Tulowitzki More »
They're not as popular as Rocky dogs or Helton burgers, but fans can still get their Rocky Mountain oysters at Coors Field. Since 1995, sliced bull's testicles, battered and fried to a golden, chewy crisp, have been available at stand 144 in the ballpark, where they have a "small but hard-core following," says Aramark regional manager Richard Hesse.

CarGo took off in the second half of the 2010 season and made a run at the triple crown. He settled for a batting title, leading the league in hits, a third-place finish in NL MVP voting and the Players Choice Award for best player in the league. He did this while playing through a wrist injury that stole his power over the final month of the season. Then, in the off-season, Gonzales capped it all off by signing a seven-year, $80 million extension before he hit free-agency. While his yearly... More »
Wouldn't you just know it? San Francisco and Oakland took top honors, but our own snuggly, tree-huggin' Coors Field nabbed third place in PETA's recent Vegetarian Friendly Ballparks Project, based on its fine array of vegetarian concession items, including grilled mushroom panini and veggie burgers, wraps and burritos, and your standard peanuts, popcorn and pretzels. And Cracker Jack, no doubt. PETA also fully approves of beer drinking, which is harmful to no animal other than yourself. So... More »
Ignore that hairy back directly in front of you. Sitting in the Rockpile at Coors Field at dusk, watching the dimming light turn the glass of downtown's skyscrapers into silver and the old brick warehouses to a dusky gold, gazing beyond the Platte Valley to the mountains that gave our baseball team its name, you see why it's a privilege to live in Colorado. And it would be even better if the Rockies won a game. More »
