Helton, Rockies headed for World Series
posted Wednesday, 24 October 2007
| Congratulations to I-ON's own Todd Helton and the Colorado Rockies for winning the National League Championship and a berth in the 2007 Major League World Series. Helton has had a huge year at the plate. He hit .320 in the regular season with a .434 on-base percentage, second in the NL to Barry Bonds. It must have been a supremely proud moment as Todd Helton carried his 5-year-old daughter, Tierney Faith, around the field as his team celebrated their Championship win. The 5-time All Star joked afterward that "now she thinks after every game we come into the locker room and pour beer on each other." Here's hoping there will be more opportunities for his daughter to join him in moments like this. |  |
