Colorado Rockies Are Going To The World Series For The First Time!
Tuesday, October 16th, 2007
It’s been a Cinderella story for the Colorado Rockies. Two weeks ago, the San Diego Padres were one strike away from eliminating them from the wild-card race when the Padres went up against the Milwaukee Brewers. But then, Milwaukee’s Tony Gwynn Jr. hit a tying, two-out, two-strike triple off Padres pitcher Trevor Hoffman that gave the Colorado Rockies a fighting chance.
The next day, The Colorado Rockies went heads up with the San Diego Padres, and won one. The night after that, the Rockies beat the Padres in a 13-inning, National League wild-card tie-breaker match. And ever since then, the Colorado Rockies have been undefeated, going through 20 wins in 21 games.
The latest achievement of the Colorado Rockies was a 4-0 sweep in the National League Championship Series against the Arizona Diamondbacks, which give them the National League pennant and a trip to the 2007 World Series. It’ll be the first trip of the Colorado Rockies to the World Series Championships since the franchise’s inaugural season in Major League Baseball back in 1993.
