Friday Rockpile: Rockies take show on the road to NL East territory
Rockies miss out on series sweep, falling to Mets - The Denver Post Home sweet home? Coors Field has been like a candy store for the Rockies in the Jim Tracy era. As shaky as they played at times during this past homestand, they won their series against the Padres and Mets. Their series record in...
Road Trippin': Fenway Park
As has been discussed several times in the past days, I was in Boston this weekend to take in a game at Fenway Park vs. the Kansas City Royals. In the past, when I've been to baseball games that don't feature the Orioles, I generally root for the home team to win. But I just couldn't do it. I...
Ever Wonder What The Cubs Do On Road Trips?

Gondeee on the Road Again
Since I obviously can't see any good baseball in Atlanta, I figured why not head out and see what some other teams have to offer. I'll be departing early Saturday morning via Delta charter (just like the Braves) to Boston. From Boston I'll be getting right out of town and going to Cooperstown --...
