As it so often is with the Rockies, it's not just that they lose, it's how they lose. Last night's game will make for a fascinating addition to the team's extensive library of excruciating losses. Well, excruciating might not be quite the right word. Maybe it's because I've come to accept that this is a lost season by this point, or maybe it's because this game was so downright strange, but I actually found myself more entertained than angered by the various twists and turns in the game.
The Rockies, stagnant offensively for an entire series in Oakland and a game in Phoenix, started the game off on the right foot this time.
