Steve, any way that you can add the “box” link to the Rox gameday summary like you have it here. Would be great to click on “box” on this site instead of going to MLB or Rockies site. Thanks.
Keep at him Wayne, you will get it eventually. LOL.
Yeah, I keep posting this to see if I can get it or a response that says they at least read this and it can or cannot get done.
