Published 7:47 pm, Saturday, March 9, 2013 A little bunt single turned this WBC matchup into a World Boxing Classic. Alfredo Aceves and several players threw nasty punches when a fierce, full-scale brawl broke out in the ninth inning Saturday of Canada's 10-3 romp over Mexico in the World Baseball Classic, a melee that also involved fans and set off skirmishes in the seats. "Whoever says that we're just here as an extra spring training game or we're just here to say we represented our country and then go home obviously didn't see how intense that game was and what it means to everybody that was involved," Canadian slugger Justin Morneau said. Multiple fights erupted after Canada's Rene Tosoni was hit in the back by a pitch from Arnold Leon with the score 9-3 at Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Even when the fisticuffs ended, Canadian pitching coach Denis Boucher was hit in the face by a full water bottle thrown from the crowd. Canadian first base coach Larry Walker, a former NL MVP, said he held back Mexico star Adrian Gonzalez during the altercation. A bunt hit by Chris Robinson heightened the tension - a WBC tiebreaker relies heavily on runs and the Canadians wanted to score again in the ninth. [...] baseman Luis Cruz fielded Robinson's bunt and seemed to tell Leon to hit the next batter.

  • Bronze Boot extended: CSU, Wyoming announce renewal of football rivalry from 2028-2035
    Denver Post, Thursday - 11/14/2024 - 02:25 PM

    CSU gave the Mountain West Conference The Boot. But its annual football rivalry game with Wyoming is back on its feet. The athletic directors for the Rams and Cowboys announced a contract to renew the longstanding rivalry series Thursday. CSU and Wyoming are slated to play eight straight times from 2028-2035, with the Rams hosting during even years (’28, ’30, ’32, ’34) and the Cowboys hosting in the odd ones (’29, ’31, ’33, ’35). The series will take a two-year hiatus in 2026 and 2027 because of CSU’s transition from the Mountain West to the Pac-12. The Rams (6-3, 4-0 MW), who have already clinched bowl eligibility for the first time since 2017, host Wyoming (2-7, 2-3 MW) on Friday evening in a Border War game televised nationally by CBS Sports Network. CSU leads the overall football series but the Pokes have won seven of the last eight meetings. Since 1968, the Border War winner has been awarded the Bronze Boot, a boot worn by Colorado State ROTC professor Captain Dan J.
