Confident Rockies go east for major road test, starting with St. Louis

()

The Rockies' clubhouse was a hectic place Sunday night.

Clubbies were storing uniforms, bats and cleats into wheeled crates. Players were packing their clothes and personal belongings. There wasn't much time to celebrate a three-game sweep of the New York Mets. The Rockies had a chartered plane to St. Louis waiting for them.

Amid the hubbub, second basemen DJ LeMahieu spoke about a challenging road trip that begins Tuesday night with a three-game series against the Cardinals.

"The way we have played on the road so far helps," LeMahieu said, noting Colorado's 11-8 record.
