Well. Seems like ol' Goose Gossage can still bring it.
The folks from Hormel Foods said Gossage was available to talk, and I figured it would be just a light chat about preservative-free meats and tailgating tips and perhaps a, pun intended, canned quote about baseball's beauty.
But the Hall of Fame hurler — born, raised and living in Colorado — had a couple thoughts on the Rockies, because, like you, "I love the Rockies," Gossage said. "I watch a game whenever I can."
So I asked the 64-year-old Yankees great about the state of the Rockies, who entered Friday with 36 wins, the second-fewest total in Major League Baseball.
