Kemp intentionally walked; gonna be up to Martin with the bases juiced.

[m26555]

Why in the world would you be rooting for the Rockies?

Fuck Colorado.

We're seven back of the Dodgers in the loss column. It's going to be vastly difficult to catch them.

You're talking about a two game difference. It's going to be vastly more difficult to catch a team that's been playing .684 baseball since june 1st than it is to catch a team that's playing like a .500 team in that same time period, and during both periods the numbers saying that those teams are playing like those records.

A two-game difference is a pretty large discrepancy this time of year.
