When I was a young lad my parents had a pizza party for one of my birthdays. Tony Zeoli came over, ate too much pizza, drank too much orange soda and threw up everywhere. Tony's parents had to come and pick him up and the party was never the same after that.
The Rockies are Tony Zeoli.
They came to San Francisco and ruined the Giants' world championship celebration, winning 2-0 behind a five-pitcher shut out.
Eddie Butler walked six in 5 1/3 innings, but didn't allow a run, while Boone Logan was the only one of four relievers to permit a base-runner (hit Brandon Crawford with an eight-inning pitch) in 3 2/3 innings of stellar work.
Mike Krukow
Before Monday, I had only spent time with Mike Krukow while trying to get Kent Hrbek out in RBI Baseball. Finally, we had a chance to just watch a game together, neither of us trying to get the ball to Scott Garrelts in the ninth inning with a lead.
Mike came through (like he usually did against Hrbek and Tom Brunansky), with his own special list of Baseball Phrases:
"He'll be in the squat, putting down the signs"
"That pitch will have some tilt"
"Very small take-back step"
"Sling shot toss"
"Tried to hump up on a four-seam fast ball"
"Reach-back velocity"
"This is a cookie right here"
"He's a get it and go guy"
"Plus arms"

San Francisco reliever Sergio Romo, welcome to the squad.
Madison Bumgarner on a horse
I know he had one of the most dominant postseasons in history to lead SF to the title, but that doesn't mean he should've mounted a horse and rode it around a baseball field.
