Rockies on Fire

The Colorado Rockies have been playing completely amazing, including their playoff effort and their last games before the season ended. The Rockies have won the last 21 out of 22 games, a streak that helped them get into the playoffs to begin with. With winning 14 out of 15 in the last remaining games of the year, the Rockies were forced to play a one game playoff verse the Padres in the last game of the season. Loser goes home, and the outcome was crazy. The game went into extra innings, and in the top of the 11th the Padres scored 2 to take the lead. With hopes gone from the stadium, the Rockies scored a miraculous 3 runs in the bottom of the 11th with their season and postseason hopes on the line. They were now in the playoffs, and from their on have been playing great baseball and have not lost one game yet. They just beat the Arizona Diamondbacks in the NLCS and are locked into the World Series. Can they sweep the World Series, who knows; the Indians look like their going to take the ALCS and see them there, and they are playing pretty exceptional themselves. I don't know whose going to win the World Series, but the Rockies have been looking very impressive their last 22 games and have a great chance of taking it all.
