How's this for irony. The Rockies are beating the crap out of Arizona Diamondbacks
3rd inning, 9-0.

We've got a lot of Latino members in our team - the pitcher on the mound is Ubaldo Jimenez, pitched a beauty of a no-hitter April 12th, and is from the Dominican Republic.

Let's see.

We've got the following furriners:

Gonzalez
Olivio
Francis (from BC, Canada)
De la Rosa (went on the DL today)
Betancourt
Chacin
Corpas
Morales
Rincon
Mora

Most are either Dominican or Venezuelan. One guy is from Panama.

1. Geez, at this rate, the Diamondbacks will start asking their outfielders

to pitch.. They're running out of pitchers because their pitching staff SUCK.

Still 3rd, 1 out, bases loaded.

5. Torn tendon band on his middle left finger
Hope he won't be out too long.

They recalled Chacin and Rincon from Colorado Springs today.

3. Go Rockies!!!
They're really my favorite team. I like all other Arizona teams except for the Diamondbacks. Reason why is I was a Rockies fan before the DBacks even existed. :woohoo:

6. I wonder if all of this had an effect on the team moral.
Don't the diamondbacks have Latinos on their team too?
