Tonight marks the return of Clint Hurdle as a Manager at Coors Field, for the first time since May 27, 2009. Clint is currently on a 5 game losing streak as a Manager at Coors, as his team had been outscored 27-51 in his last 5 games. His last victory at Coors was a 12-1 win over the Astros on 5/12/09, the last of 7 wins they had in 2009 with Hurdle as the Rockies Skipper against 13 losses.
I'm curious to see the welcome that Hurdle will get this weekend from the crowd at Coors Field. I'm hoping it will be warm when he's announced in the pre-game lineups. After all, he was the right manager to have when the young players needed some coddling. He's in a similar situation with the Pirates, and I wish him well--after Sunday
