Comment by Ken Lee (30/43) on September 19, 2009 at 11:50am: Btw, Seattle to Denver.. Driving? It's like 1325 miles, roughly, so if you're outta Seattle and on the road by 11pm after the night game and you do the speed limit, or even 5 over, you're into Denver at Coors by 1st pitch the next night (you lose an hour from PST to MST), assuming you never pull over for gas or use the can. I dunno about that one... especially cause there are a few places along the way you're gonna hit traffic.
