Just pointing you to a couple of well-written and fun game stories. The first, out of Chicago, by Paul Sullivan is nicely written piece which gets your blood pumping as the Cubs come from way behind. Wrigley must have been jumping, and you can almost hear the crowd. Dodger fans were also happy last night as the bats came alive. For the Rockies point of view about their current state of consistent losing, the Denver Post puts together this notes column with some good quotes from the Rox clubhouse. Dylan Hernandez writes not only a game story but some nice bits about how Russell Martin has worked to raise his average after a prolonged slump. Larry Bowa is always great for a quote, and apparently he told the team during a meeting on Thursday to stop using age as an excuse. The quote form Hernandez is “Tampa Bay is young,” Bowa said he told them. “Florida’s young. Arizona’s young.” Its true. The Dodgers are now just 2.5 games behind AZ in the west.
