SWEEP!

It's been the Rockies motto lately that there's a different hero every night. Who would've ever thought it would be Jeff Fucking Baker. The guy is not a household name in baseball, but somehow Jeff managed to step up and drive in the winning run to lead the Rockies sweep of the Phillies in the NLDS.

Pitching? Ubaldo Jimenez against veteran Jamie Moyer was incredible, at one time even retiring 11 batters in a row. His one mistake was a solo home run to Shane Victorino, but that didn't hurt us too much thanks to Jeff Fucking Baker. :)

Perhaps now the baseball world will be taking more notice of our beloved Rockies. The Diamondbacks swept the Cubbies as well, but we all know that we can BEAT the D'Backs. Our starting pitching has been effective. Our bullpen is ON. Our offense is showing up when needed. Our defense is as good as it's ever been.

The World Series is in reach. And even though I'm an incredibly superstitious baseball fan, I feel that since we're between series I can say it... I'm pretty sure that the Rockies have forgotten how to lose. I'm on a total high right now, feeling that nothing matters but baseball. Sadly, my next show (John Vanderslice/Bishop Allen) is the same night as the first game of the NLCS. Goddamnit.
