The daily Herald reports on how Santo found out his number was going to be retired. The gist is they callde him into an office and suggested that they were going to be firing him. Instead, they took down his number.

Now that the Hall requirement is gone, it's time to start retiring some other numbers. Ryne Sandberg's 23 is obvious. Bruce Sutter wore Jackie Robinson's retired 42, but make it official. Lotsa others.

Go Rockies.
