He Was a Rockie?

Yesterday's Recap
From worst to first. Yup 6 months after winning the NL pennant the Roxs sit in the cellar with one of the worst records in baseball. Of course last year at this time we were also whining about the same thing as the Roxs also got out to a horrible start and then started to put it together. Unfortunately this year, the Roxs aren't quite as under the radar. They are a known entity, teams want to come in and beat the champs. Last night was a perfect example. The game was either teams to take and yet the Roxs lost out to a player who wanted it a bit more (as in Pujols heads up play in the ninth). If you are looking at games to turn it around last night was one to win, not let slip away!

He Was a Rockie? - Fred Rath
Two weeks ago I featured a former Rockie who had one at bat, well this week I feature a pitcher who pitched in 2 games for the Roxs back in 1998.  He pitched 5.3 innings.  He gave up one earned run and had two strikeouts.  That was his entire major league career.  Wow talking about a cup of coffee!
