MLB commissioned Malcolm Farley to capture the Rockies run to the pennant in a series of paintings:
Farley has been commissioned by Major League Baseball to do a series of five pieces: Helton’s home run; shortstop Troy Tulowitzki turning a double play; two of Matt Holliday, including his shot over the center- field wall in the pennant-clinching victory; and a stadium piece with fireworks erupting over Denver’s night sky.
His work last week took him to Los Angeles to paint Stevie Wonder during an awards ceremony, to New York to paint Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James and to San Antonio, where he crossed paths with Eva Longoria, wife of Spurs guard Tony Parker.
“They’re all Rockies fans,” he said of Wonder, James and Longoria. “They’re all talking about the Rockies. It’s what’s good about baseball.”

David, FYI, there’s a big ole porn spam post on your “Top of the Ninth” post from last night. (feel free to delete this comment too if you can/want)
