The Colorado Rockies are surging towards an improbable playoff run
The Rockies have won an amazing 11 games in a row which has pulled them only 1 game behind the Padres for the Wild Card and 2 games behind the D-Backs for the N.L. West lead. The Rockies will host the D-Backs this weekend so they hold fate in their own hands. Brad Hawpe has been a big key in the surge as he is 12 for his last 26 (.462 avg) with 4 runs scored, 3 homers and 10 RBIs. Todd Helton has also been swinging a hot stick as he is 10 for his last 28 (.357 avg) with 1 homer and 7 RBIs.
