off the bat and off the wall that was Violet Jung who Tri get a win over the Rockies 86 and oh baby oh baby oh baby good morning to everybody out there getting off their graveyard shift if you’re at work what is happening you’re getting ready for work what is happening if you’re those on the roadways here uh drive safely drive safely in the overnight dancers hopefully you had a great night business was booming for you listen we got YouTube and twitch and Twitter uh shout out to all them good morning to them brought to you by first L Cal Credit Union upgrades your savings dividend open a first NorCal first class money market today and shout out to the infinity mobile text L sple good morning to you love me Carter in the building of course been in for Shashi this week week’s been flying by here watching the Colorado Rockies oh that’s who we all thought the A’s would be this year they’re not even close I I don’t know what the direction is in the Colorado Rockies I know what their plan is and I wouldn’t give GI credit they’re they’re beating them up and they’ve been beating him up in Coors Field under farod Z but pedot man I I I just look I’m happy the Giants W they won two in a row hey you can salvage another game on his road trip win four and 10 games you make it you dress it up and look good and go four and six but the Rockies I could not just I kept scratching my head thinking what is their plan what are they doing well we were talking about the soul of a city and a sports City yesterday and certain teams that could represent that there’s no soul in the Colorado Rockies they have been lifeless damn near my entire life it’s it’s been a nice ballpark but I have never outside of that one World Series R they had what was that 07 whatever that was they lost to the red side yeah they had like a two week off Hiatus or whatever because they just kept sweeping everyone outside of that they have just been a nothing burger for me like and there’s a couple teams like that around certain leagues for the most part um you know you can go like to Washington Wizards have been one of those for my entire life basically just franchises that just don’t do anything for anyone yeah they might get thrown a bone you know they had the All-Star Game there a couple years ago they had the Home Run Derby that was fun but they’re just one of those teams where I just look I just I forget about them you you forget about them but they’re so bad this year that you cannot it’s like a car wreck you just got to look at it and for the Giants you’re just happy you got the series in and you know what that’s fine by me not complaining I’m not this was the ultimate slump Buster we said it going into it if you if you lost to the Colorado Rockies this series then it’s a problem but get back onto the horse here and uh see if you could carry this momentum into some tougher match ups look the Rogers Brothers pitch well yesterday Rogers Brothers at is that’s something to scoff at if you pitch well at cores that that does something for him Jord Hicks does a you know five Ines gave up to seven hits and the two walks it’s a big ballpark you got through five though and you get the win Jordan Hicks now approves a 3-1 on the season Rockies are just terrible they give up to six spot the top of the second inning um and it was good to see Ramos by the way Ros got called up due to Sol going to the I due to a shoulder strain so Ramos was DH last night he goes one for four with two strikeouts batted seventh Yas was batting six and Yas went two for four you got Chapman he got a couple knocks yesterday two for five Michael Cordo starting it off with a bank so the Giants do get a win but I was just thinking man the Rockies like they do in soccer in the Premier League you don’t win enough games and you stink you get relegated you don’t get to play in the big boy League now what would that mean for the Rockies I don’t know but that’s a AAA organization right now they are a AAA organization Chris Bryant big money man they signed a couple years ago he’s done nothing he’s been hurt for the most part it’s been hurt great move by the Giants not getting him and going after him actually I’ll give Farhan some credit there he saw the riding on the wall when it came to him maybe a guy like Gosman in the past would have been nice to keep but even Kevin gosman’s actually kind of struggling this year with Toronto but to your point they just have nothing to be hopeful about I mean at least back in the day remember they had tulo he was always hurt though um who was my other guy Gonzalez right gonz Carlos Gonzalez they had Todd Helton there forever now he’s a hall of fame or he should be a Hall of Fame I don’t know if he got inducted or not I think he got inducted he indued inducted I feel like I feel like he just got inducted in the last class Todd he’ll be uh he’ll be giving a speech super yep yes he did so so shout out Todd hton but again outside of that like that is the only Colorado Rocky worth noting remember they had Jamie Moyer there when he was like 50 years old uh um so like they’re just one of those teams where I just don’t associate anything like say what you will about the A’s you could associate you know the dumpster fire of the Coliseum the ownership and stuff like that they’ve been competitive they’ve had teams where you’re like okay and they have players that have actually produced maybe not for their team but other teams whether it’s Matt Olsen whether it’s Josh Donaldson in the past stuff like that Colorado I just and I look at that Sports Town Denver and obviously they have the Nuggets right now and the Nuggets don’t resonate at all there they just don’t it’s just not a basketball place even though they won the championship you could just go to their television readings they’re just not television ratings aren’t aren’t great but you know what they sell it out they no they do people the games it’s a Broncos it’s Broncos it’s exactly Colorado buffalos Avalanche Avalanche you right the Buffalo I mean Prim prime time yeah prime time so so the Rockies they’re like fifth on the totem pole like college is ahead of you but people like people like that ballpark they do like pretty aesthetically when I’m watching television it looks nice it’s downtown on Blake Street you know you renovated it you got the mile high the purple line up there you got the bar seed up there right field I hear it’s a great ballpark it’s a great road trip it’s a great place to be and that’s their baby no doubt but the Broncos are as well the Nugget so look man I I they’re getting no traction I don’t know if they can ever gain Traction in that ballpark in that altitude they got to figure something out they’ tried to draft kids from the Denver area that hasn’t worked out they’ve tried to draft they tried to humidor they tried all these things I just don’t know what the direction is with the Colorado Rockies I don’t know the plan I I I just you look at them it’s like wow that’s sad they’re kind of like and now we’re seeing them playing better as of late but the Mariners for the last 20 plus years prior to like Julio Rodriguez and all these guys coming up they were just irrelevant yeah they had Ichiro but it’s like oh great Ichiro yay yeah and that was it it cool there’s girl there and then he left and he went to the Yankees and the Marlins what have you so they’re just one of those teams in the National League specifically when you have all those iconic Brands too like even the teams that have been bad like the Pirates they’re the they’re a brand they got they got the ballpark they got those jerseys it just pops Colorado I actually kind of like the jerseys I always like the purple and black the hats specifically I always kind of rocked those the pin stripes I always thought were a cool look not bad but it just they they come through still as like an expansion team but they’ve been around for 30 plus years for as long as I’ve been alive I think they’ve 93 was their first season when they couldn’t beat the Atlanta Braves one time that season the Braves win 104 the Giants win 103 to the playoffs the classic race Rockies the Rockies could beat him once they were the last they were played the Braves for the last series of the season in Atlanta and Atlanta swept the four gameer of course the Giants lose on the last day of the season to the Dodgers 12 to one Solomon Torres will never forget the name for what happened that day at Dodgers Stadium Mike piao Yard twice and yeah the Giants won 103 games in the next year if wild card was implemented so the Rockies they they’ve been they’ve
