An outdoor stadium in Colorado?

That’s as stupid as if they were to build an outdoor stadium in Minnesota.

BTW, this game started way too early.

It’s a balmy 48* in Denver now. If they waited a few hours for the big audience, it woulda been 34* w/ a mist.

MLB’s gotta get it’s act together. We need more revenue.

So that is stellar? That was Tony Pena/Liney-like.

All I’m saying is the closers have not been stellar this playoff year so far.

Outstanding ESPN quote
Albert Pujols was a non-factor, too, going 3 for 10 with an RBI. The Dodgers studiously avoided him with runners in scoring position and issued three intentional walks the first two games, even though he didn’t seem to be the same guy that batted .327 with an NL-leading 47 homers and 135 RBIs.
