Colorado Rockies: The joys of early spring training

The Colorado Rockies have only played two games thus far in Cactus League play (plus one cancellation due to rain) but there already have been a lot of players who you may not know that have seen game action.

In the Colorado Rockies’ first spring game, someone by the name of Eric Stamets, a non-roster invitee with two hits in 41 career big-league at-bats (.049), stepped up to the plate in the fifth inning and hit a three-run home run into the left-field stands against the Angels.

Then again in the second game, a 3-for-3 performance by prospect Bret Boswell to go along with another day of obscure relief pitchers taking the mound had Google hard at work.
